Marcus, from Tottenham, North London, had been enjoying a holiday with his parents when he met a fellow Brit at the same hotel. A holiday fling sparked and the pair spent time together until the girl, also from London, flew back to Britain.

In Dubai, if an adult has a sexual relationship with a person under 18, they can be prosecuted for having a sexual relationship with a minor. The relationship would be legal in the UK.

Marcus and his parents were set to fly back shortly after - but their plans were thrown into chaos when police knocked on their hotel room door. The “terrified” teenager was then reportedly hauled in for questioning without any explanation and held at the Al Barsha Police Station, DID said. He spent three days there, during which time he was not allowed to make a phone call or speak with his parents, it is claimed.

This place is so backwards.

Let’s look the past the fact you’re a moron, attempting to make a point on behalf of your brother’s in christ, the gays.

And let’s dive in.

Are there homophobic and misogynistic westerners who like slaves? Absolutely.

Now have a think how many of them also like Muslims and the middle east and want to go to a Muslim country with no alcohol that judges them?

Sshhhhhhh child, no more talking.
