A 15-year-old Abu Dhabi boy is being tried in a criminal court for sneaking into a house and kissing two teenage girls. According to local reports, the boy was discovered by the father and has been charged with illegally entering a home and molestation.

The prosecution accused the unnamed boy of entering a house in the capital and molesting two girls but the he denied the charges, saying they let him in.

“The boy confessed to entering the house and kissing the two girls,” the paper said. “But he told the judge that the let him in and that it was not the first time that he goes into that house and kiss them.”

Local UAE residents, upon hearing the charges, were shocked that it was actually going to court.

“What a waste of time for the court to even hear such a case. The boys and girls are young teenagers,” said one Dubai resident to Bikyamasr.com. “What do we expect, that they won’t try this? Now will he be sentenced and have his life ruined because he stole a kiss?”
