A housemaid and her boyfriend, both of Asian descent, are in hot water for allegedly being caught by her employers having an illicit love affair inside their home in Fujairah.
Based on the records of the Misdemeanor Court, the two started the relationship over the phone while the housemaid was still working for the Emirati family.
The court documents added that the Asian couple then decided to meet in person and have sex out of wedlock inside the house help’s room in the residence of her employer.
But the Emirati woman returned home earlier than expected, catching the boyfriend sleeping inside the maid’s room. This prompted the employer to call her husband, who in turn alerted the police.
During the hearing, the boyfriend told the court that they have no sexual relationship, claiming that he and maid were relatives.
“She is my cousin and we never did anything wrong,” he said.
The Misdemeanor Court is expected to give its verdict in the case in the coming weeks.
