A woman has filed a lawsuit against a man who allegedly posted over 20 videos and recordings defaming her character and undermining her reputation.

The Emirati woman was a candidate for the FNC, a Federal National Council which is the federal authority of the United Arab Emirates formed to represent the general Emirati people, and she has a huge social media following.

Her lawyers requested the maximum sentence for the accused, while explaining the Arab man had publicly challenged and insulted the woman through a barrage of messages via the social media app Snapchat, which undermined her reputation and embarrassed her, according to a report via the Khaleej Times. 

In the interim, the woman has asked for AED 21,000 in compensation.
