A woman has been acquitted of killing a man, whom she claimed to be her pimp, after he assaulted her.
The 25-year-old Bangladeshi woman, N.B., had a heated argument with the pimp, F.S., who had been drinking liquor, before he assaulted her after a prostitute ran away from the flat in August.
Citing insufficient evidence, the Dubai Court of First Instance cleared N.B. of stabbing F.S. and killing him intentionally.
A 28-year-old Bangladeshi woman, H.S., was also acquitted of aiding and abetting F.S. by inciting her to kill the deceased.
F.S. told N.B. that she had to pay him Dh6,000, according to records, after the other prostitute ran away and that she had to sleep with men to earn that Dh6,000.
