DUBAI // A worker followed a British woman while exercising last fall and touched her inappropriately, a Dubai court heard this morning.
The 25-year-old suspect, MR, from Bangladesh, denied the charges when he appeared before the Dubai Criminal Court of First Instance.
According to court records, the victim, a 33-year-old housewife, was out for her daily exercise in the Jebil Ali area on November 2, 2010.
She said she noticed a man following her. When she arrived in a relatively remote area, she told prosecutors, MR
suddenly started walking towards her, took her hand, then grabbed her breast.
The suspect fled the scene immediately, records show.
She went to the Jebil Ali Police station and reported him. According to court records, the woman identified the suspect during investigations.
The court will reconvene on March 12 to issue its verdict.

TOUCH RULES
Touch is derived from rugby league. Teams consist of up to 14 players with a maximum of six on the field at any time.
Teams can make as many substitutions as they want during the 40 minute matches.
Similar to rugby league, the attacking team has six attempts - or touches - before possession changes over.
A touch is any contact between the player with the ball and a defender, and must be with minimum force.
After a touch the player performs a “roll-ball” - similar to the play-the-ball in league - stepping over or rolling the ball between the feet.
At the roll-ball, the defenders have to retreat a minimum of five metres.
A touchdown is scored when an attacking player places the ball on or over the score-line.

WHAT ARE NFTs?
Non-fungible tokens (NFTs) are tokens that represent ownership of unique items. They allow the tokenisation of things such as art, collectibles and even real estate.
An NFT can have only one official owner at one time. And since they're minted and secured on the Ethereum blockchain, no one can modify the record of ownership, not even copy-paste it into a new one.
This means NFTs are not interchangeable and cannot be exchanged with other items. In contrast, fungible items, such as fiat currencies, can be exchanged because their value defines them rather than their unique properties.
