The man called police after the fact to make a complaint, and has since transferred the complaint into the woman’s name.<\/p>\n
The woman, who says she was not involved in the incident, has had the charges transferred to her name as the relevant parties have now left the UAE.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The incident happened in 2016, and the woman is awaiting court proceedings.\u00a0<\/p>\n
