Policeman testifies
An Emirati police corporal, who was among the raid team, testified: “We asked the watchman to knock the door before we stormed into the place, though J.P. tried to block the doorway. The women, who hid on the balcony, wore appealing clothes.”
The police team seized cash in various currencies. A verdict will be issued soon. (stoning???)
