The Ras Al Khaimah Criminal Court of Appeal has upheld the suspended three-month jail term and deportation issued by the low court against a young man and woman convicted of exchanging nude photos on WhatsApp.
The duo was initially referred to the Ras Al Khaimah criminal court for exchanging their nude pictures and having consensual sex out of wedlock.
Court records showed that the 19-year-old man – an Asian – threatened to defame the 20-year-old woman – also an Asian – and post her nude pictures on social media if she severed her ties with him.
When alerted about the threat, the woman’s mother lodged a complaint against him with the RAK Police. The cops immediately took action and detained the suspect, who later proved to be in a relationship with the woman’s daughter.
