Indian on trial for molesting child in Dubai
Dubai, May 17: A 46-year-old Indian worker has gone on trial here after he allegedly molested a 5-year-old girl, the media reported on Thursday.
According to the public prosecution records, the unidentified Indian man molested the Iranian girl while she was playing outside her house in Dubai's Al Barsha, the Khaleej Times reported.
The girl's father told prosecutors said that she confirmed that "the worker had kissed her on the lips when she was with the neighbours' daughter near the parking lot".
The accused is believed to have kissed and hugged the child on two different occasions. The victim's mother came to know about the incidents on March 8, the report said.
The family then went to the police station to lodge a complaint. However, the man denied a molestation charge at the Court of First Instance.

Patanjali issues another public apology following Supreme Court's criticism
New Delhi: In response to the Supreme Court's scrutiny over the size of its previous public apology, Patanjali Ayurved has issued a second, more prominent apology, signed by Yoga guru Ramdev and Patanjali’s managing director Acharya Balkrishna and acknowledging the ongoing legal matter before the Hon’ble Supreme Court of India.
The apology expresses regret for any non-compliance or disobedience of the court's directives and extends apologies for holding a meeting/press conference on November 22, 2023. It also acknowledges mistakes made in publishing advertisements and expresses commitments to not to repeat such errors. Furthermore, the apology reads that Patanjali is commited to abiding by the court's instructions with utmost sincerity and upholding the majesty of the law.
On Tuesday, the court had directed senior advocate Mukul Rohatgi, appearing for Patanjali, to “cut out the ads and then supply it to us” without enlarging. “We want to see the actual size. This is our direction… we want to see that when you issue an advertisement, it does not mean we have to see it with a microscope,” the court said.
Patanjali had previously assured the court of refraining from making any misleading statements or advertisements against allopathy. However, subsequent actions, including a press conference by Ramdev and an advertisement issued by the company, led to a contempt notice being issued to Ramdev and Balkrishna for violating their undertaking.
