An Emirati employee allegedly raped his girlfriend’s sister and threatened to kill her and burn their house if she complained against him, the Dubai Criminal court heard.

On August 27, Mariam and her brother travelled to Abu Dhabi and left their 23-year-old sister MA alone with the maid who stays in supplementary premises in the yard.

MA was sleeping in her room when she was woken up by the accused MH, 34, with an electric detonator.

“I asked him why he is in my room and how he got into the house. He asked me about my sister. I told him that she went with my brother to Abu Dhabi,” said the victim.

MH asked the victim to call her sister and tell her to come back home to which the victim obliged as she realized MH was not in a normal condition.

“I was scared that he might have harmed her and began trembling”, MA said. “I asked him to take me to the hospital.

While leaving, the victim’s friend SS came in. “I asked her to stay with me after finishing her shift as I was alone,” said the victim.

Her 22-year-old friend asked what was wrong and why MH was in the house but both the victim and the attacker did not respond.

MA asked SS to take her to the hospital and when SS went to open her car she stopped  MH stopped her. He then reached for something in his pocket, assuming that he carried a weapon, SS rushed to her car and escaped.

MH dragged the victim into the house and asked her to sleep with him, to which MA refused.

He threatened to kill her.

He also asked MA to call her friend SS and ask her to return as he wanted to sleep with both of them.

“I was very scared of him. I called SS and asked her to return but she refused as she noticed that MH was still in the house. I lied to him that she is coming back,” the victim told investigators.

The accused raped MA in her bed room for revenge.

Before leaving, he threatened of killing her and burning their house if she told anyone.

After he left, SS returned to the house and learnt from the victim that the accused had raped her.

SS repeated corroborative testimonies.

Forensic reported that the victim had sustained bruises in different areas of her body.

Police arrested the accused for rape, threatening, and assaulting the victim in addition to violating others’ property.

The court will reconvene on December 31.
