Sinn Fein President Mary Lou McDonald has spoken out about the harrowing experience of an Irish woman in Dubai, stating: “Following one particularly severe beating in which her husband repeatedly tried to break her arm, Tori escaped upstairs and she attempted to take her own life. Tori now faces charges in Dubai of attempted suicide and the abuse of alcohol.”

"The system over there, rather than protecting this woman, who is an Irish citizen, chose instead to detain her, to charge her.

    Everything is in the article: charges of consuming alcohol, in the shittiest muslim country. Also being a foreign woman that moved there to make instagram photos.

    I don’t go to Afghanistan to play video games while drunk for a reason.

      I usually don’t read articles like this because there are so many bad decisions that lead to things like this and it frustrates me.

      No person deserves to be treated like she was. Nothing can excuse her husbands actions. OTOH she willingly moved to Dubai where this treatment is not only legal but practically encouraged.

      The leopards usually eat the faces of the ones hanging out with them.
