Thanks for posting this Peter. I believe it was Dubai also which was recently the centre of a ' Boycott Dubai' campaign by a French Swiss family who had lived and worked there and whose son was kidnapped and raped by several people including a family 'friend'. They got little to no justice and the laws are always very bad with regards to rape in any case. http://www.boycottdubai.com/index_new_E.php With the eventual prosecution of some of the rapists the family decided to drop their case against the Dubai state.

Dubai pretty much sounds like my idea of hell at the best of times and seems to be an actual hell for most of the slave class. Disgusting that it is permitted or that another state would have dealings with this and similar places.
