Afraid that it would dishonour her if she were to be touched by "strange men", a man left his daughter to drown at a beach in Dubai rather than allow lifeguards to stage a rescue.

The bizarre incident was reported by news website Emirates 24/7 on Sunday (Aug 9), following an interview with Lt Col Ahmed Burqibah, the deputy director of Dubai Police's Search and Rescue Department.

According to Lt Col Burqibah, the unidentified man had taken his wife and children to the beach for a picnic.




His 20-year-old daughter was swimming in the water when she started screaming for help, but two lifeguards who were nearby were prevented from rescuing her by the father.

"He told them that he prefers his daughter dead than being touched by a strange man," said Lt Col Burqibah.

"He was a tall and strong man, and started pulling and preventing the rescue men and got violent with them."

The man's daughter drowned, with Lt Col Burqibah pointing out that the delay in saving her probably cost her life.

The man was subsequently arrested by the police for barring the rescue team from doing their job.

How in the holy mother of fuck can these people watch their babies come into the world sharing there genes and their blood, their mannerisms and their quirks, as children..........worshiping their fathers and looking to them for proper love and guidance, then in the blink of an eye destroy their lives, either by allowing them to die or by killing them with their own hand in the name of preserving some fucking honor in the eyes of their equally fucked up friends and neighbors? It's just so far out there that it is absolutely one hundred percent incomprehensible to any sane thinking person in a sane part of the world. Fucking FUCK man, that was your daughter!!!

Fanatical religious beliefs trump all honor. I know that is the way of thinking over there but I never thought it would be taken to the point someone would let their daughter drown. Sickening.

Mother fucking pieces of shit the whole lot of em. Fuck them all.
That's a generalization. You can't say every one of them............clearly the ones who wanted to run into the water to fondle his daughter were working with a different set of ideals.

I've heard so many stories of women and girls being mutilated, killed, etc by their own fathers, brothers, uncles, etc. Shit is fuuuuuuuucked. You know, most days I'm reminded how absolutely batshit insane most Americans are but I thank my lucky stars that I was born here and at least can avoid most of the crazies compared to having to live with them and fear for my life every day.

Again that sorry ass excuse of a man is an animal, what the fuck do 1.5 billion other people have to do with this monster.
If it was a common practice he wouldn't be arrested.

Shit like this is a common practice, this may be on the more extreme end, but don't think shit like this isn't normal.

If the place didn't scare me so much I'd love to visit the Burj and Atlantis, but the worry about getting a bit tipsy or giving my other half a snog landing me in jail? Naaaaa.
