I feel so sorry for this young man and his family. I can only imagine how scared they all are. The girl’s mother is truly wicked to report this

Oh brother. Doesn't Dubai have anything better to do?

I hope our government is able to help get him released and returned safely to the UK. The cost of forbidden love can be great! Very sad

It really is. Did he even know she was only 17?

He probably did know but it’s less than 1 year difference… he may not have known it was illegal though

My guess is that the girls mother was definitely not black and/or different religion and it was racially/religiously motivated to report it

True and I would be swearing up and down that I didn't know, unless he was crazy enough to admit it on social media.

She was over 9 years old.

And he’s not 50 plus either

The Muslims are rather backwards sexually in general. They are hundreds of years behind the West in that regard. And since she reported it to the government that indicates to me that she knew of this law. She is most likely Arabic. So racism could be a motivation or they may regard their daughter as their property and he made her worthless by having premarital sex with her. It sounds like she was out for revenge.

And it's legal in the UK.

I read another article that said the messages were also talking about how they were still going to be in a relationship in the UK and allegedly his parents knew about her. Let’s hope they aren’t now forcing the girl to get married to some uncle from back home that wants a British visa
