In the UAE, the benefit of doubt is always given to the women.

How do they know the woman didn't make up the story? And one guys life is now totally destryoed because of a 'mistake' it's pathetic.

my point exactelly!
even if this cases r difficult to prove...still there has to be some evidence to back up her story!
and i don't think that anyone who lives there and knows the consequences of groping a woman would do this on purpose!

youd be surprised....
i went out with some of my cousins to celebrate the iranian holiday (eid noruz). well we were standing in line and we were talking in arabic about how excited we were. there were a bunch of guys in front of us, hearing us speak in arabic i guess they thought we didnt know farsi and one of them decided it was ok for him to turn around and grab my ummm upper body part . at first i thought it was a mistake so i didnt say anything but when my cousin and i heard them talking about it, (yup, they are real in farsi) i about killed him. the police came and didnt do shit about it, he asked us if we were local (yes) then asked what we were doing here (celebrating the holiday) his answer....serves you right. i slapped him on the face and told my cousin to come with me and find a better place to go.
