kidnapping

A woman and four men went on trial accused of engaging in prostitution activities and kidnapping a man when he allegedly refused to pay after having sex with the woman.

The Abu Dhabi Criminal Court of First Instance was told how the Asian men beat up the man after abducting him when he failed to pay money to the woman after having sex with her.

Official court documents stated that the victim found the Asian woman on one of the streets in the capital during the evening. The woman agreed to have sex with him in exchange for a sum of money.

And after reportedly having sex in the woman's apartment, the man refused to pay the agreed amount to the woman.

The woman informed the four men, who were also engaged in the prostitution activities and running the brothel, about the customer who refused to pay.
