Woman Drowns in Dubai After Father Blocks Rescue to Save 'Honour'

[IndoCarib]

Dubai: A young Asian woman drowned after her father allegedly prevented Dubai lifeguards from coming to the rescue because that would "dishonour" her, Emirati news media reported Monday.

Emirates 24/7 reported that Dubai police arrested the unnamed man.

When two lifeguards tried to help the drowning 20-year-old, her father "started pulling and preventing the rescue men and got violent with them", it reported.

"He told them that he prefers his daughter being dead than being touched by a strange man," said Lieutenant Colonel Ahmed Burqibah, deputy director of Dubai police's search and rescue department.

The Asian man "considered that if these men touched his daughter, then this would dishonour her. It cost him the life of his daughter," Burqibah said, quoted by the website.

Dubai police later arrested the father for having blocked rescue teams from doing their job and saving his daughter's life.

she had no other choice.. its not like she refused to be rescued.
father was not brave coz it was not his life at stake.
basically a loss of life due to stupidity.

Are you drunk? ?? Or you have extremist mindset. Even animals are better than these humans. This is not only inhuman act, this is madness. Sad, humanity has reached at such low level as it happened in 10th century. How shamelessly you are supporting this murder just because she was woman. Let assume If this incident happens to his son, I am sure his reaction would be different. . This is 10th century mentality, extremist mindset. ill minded people.

Nobody can say this while drowning. Even no time to talk. I think you have very bad and vulgar eyes. You don't trust anybody because of bad, obscene and vulgar mentality. even you should be strict at home because you have vulgar eyes. Don't be narrow minded and don't support inhuman and barbaric act. Then, there is no difference between you and ISIS.

Where is honour .. Allow her drowning just because she was woman. What If he could be his son.???
His father is not only ill mind but with backward mentality.
As you are defending this incident, Now think about your daughter, Will you do same in the name of honour killing? As I said there is no difference between you and ISIS.
