Arrests After Accusation Lobbed at Two Men Accused of Fondling

Two young men were sentenced to three months in prison in the United Arab Emirates after a woman accused them of fondling each other in a car.

The men, whose names aren't being released, allegedly hooked up in a car near Jumeirah Beach. A 48-year-old woman who found the car "suspicious" began tailing the vehicle, which initially moved upon seeing her. When the woman caught up with the car, she claims she saw the men fondling each other, though conflicting reports exist on what exactly the 27-year-old and the 32-year-old were doing. Now, the men will not only face jail time but will be deported to their home nations of the Phillipines and Oman.

In that country and culture, aren't women forbidden to talk, wear clothing other than a burqua, etc? And if she wasn't high up in a truck, how could she tell?
