Dubai: A Bangladeshi housemaid, who allegedly cut her 77-year-old Emirati sponsor's penis after he asked for a massage, will stand trial on Thursday.
"She has been referred to the Dubai Court of First Instance and her trial starts today (Thursday). She has been referred to the criminal court because her accusation is assault that led to permanent disability," a source close to the case told Gulf News on Wednesday.
"Had she been charged with assaulting and injuring the victim without causing him any disfigurement or disability, she would have been referred to the Misdemeanors Court," the source said.
"During police questioning, the woman claimed that she chopped her sponsor's penis because she was fed up with his continuous sexual harassment…," the source said.
A senior prosecution source told Gulf News that the woman was recently granted bail after spending several weeks in provisional detention.
According to the charge sheet, prosecutors allege the housemaid used a sharp tool to cut the Emirati's penis leaving him permanently disabled. The injury required more than 20 days' sick leave.
Police records said the man was rushed to hospital following the assault.
The Emirati man, who resides in Deira, bled severely when he was rushed to hospital.
The man had underwent an urgent surgery where doctors at a public hospital reattached his appendage.
According to primary interrogations the defendant was mainly hired to take care of the man.
During questioning she claimed that she used a knife to cut off her employer's penis as he had been allegedly sexually harassing her for many days.
According to the Penal Code, a suspect, who assaults someone and deliberately causes the victim a permanent disability, could face up to seven years in jail.
Police records said the Bangladeshi woman alleged that her employer had asked for a massage and had been harassing her.
She became angry and so she took a knife and attacked him.
I don't know why the Gulf printed two different stories. The paper has a much more entertaining version, saying that he had asked her to massage is gentials. She did and "at the right moment" took a razor to his penis, cut it off, it dropped to the floor, and she put it in the garbage. The man and his penis were rushed to the hospital for surgery and now the man and his penis have been reunited.
So now the guy has a disability. The only disability I can think of is that possibly he can't pee straight???
It seems that no one thought to ask the old man how she got to his penis, or what he was doing to make his penis so accessible??
