Islamic teacher gets 5 months for raping student
A Dubai court has sentenced a Pakistani religious teacher to five years in jail for repeatedly raping a 11-boy he was teaching. The 23-year-old man identified as ZB was found guilty by the Dubai Criminal Court of First Instance for raping the boy over a period of seven months during which he was assigned to give him Quran lessons, The National reported. The boy had earlier told prosecutors that the man would come home to teach him Quran five days a week since February 2009. Intimidated by the man, the boy was unable to speak out to anyone about his ordeal, prosecutors were told. His mother however said she began to notice changes in the boy’s demeanour after the classes started. He revealed everything when she cajoled him to speak the truth.
She then lodged a complaint with the police on January 01 after which ZB was taken for questioning at the Jebel Ali police station.

Grown Saudi Women Beg Guardians for Driving Licences!
Saudi women, who cannot take the driver's seat in the conservative kingdom, want to be given driving licenses at home so they can drive abroad, the English daily Arab News reported on Friday.
"I just don't believe that women shouldn't have driving licenses because they are not allowed to drive in the Kingdom and that when they go abroad they can hire taxis and like," interior designer Rufaida Jamal, 24, said. "I just feel I shouldn't be less than other women in the world."
Saudi women are banned from driving on all public roads in the kingdom, the world's largest crude oil exporter.
The no-drive ban, which is forcing a lot of families to hire live-in drivers, could not keep Saudi women, who make up more than 45 percent of the population, from knowing how to get behind the wheel.
"Not being able to drive in the Kingdom shouldn't be a reason why Saudi women don't know how to drive," dentist Fatima Rizq, 26, said.
Saudi females are subject to a guardian system which prohibits any woman from traveling or living independently without written permission from mahram or a male guardian who could be her husband, father or brother.
Some Saudi men threw their weight behind the campaign.
"You never know what might happen," Mostafa Ali, a 52-year-old father, said.
