DUBAI, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES — A father has been arrested in Dubai after he stopped rescuers from saving his drowning daughter's life to save her "honor."
According to Emirates 24/7, the father, described as a strong and tall Asian man, was having a picnic with his family at the beach. Arabian Business describes the man as an "expat."
Soon after his children had gone swimming, screams were heard. His 20-year-old daughter was drowning. Two lifeguards spotted the girl and rushed to her aid.
However, her father stopped them, saying if they touched her, they'd dishonor her. He reportedly told them he prefers his daughter dead than be touched by a strange man.
Dubai police later arrested the man for stopping the rescue of his daughter. Emirates 24/7 reports that the authorities have prosecuted and sued father.
