He has been referred to the authorities.

Mesay, 'CONSENSUAL SEX'. What part of this is "rape"??? If stupid were a crime, the woman should be sent to jail.

Life in the Desert
I danced in the desert,
I swam by the shores,
I spent warm nights under starlit blankets of silver,
I made friends from far-away places
I ate and drank and savored it all
I loved and was loved
What more could anyone ask for?

Gives a new meaning to "hochus Pochus."
LOL, I have no idea why stuff like this make it to the news in the first place. Surely it wasn't a busy day for news in Kuwait...
Many people still believe in things like black magic, though, mostly due to religious reasons. I'm not a religious person and I don't believe in these things but others do. This makes police matters a lot more complicated around here.
Personally, I'm in the agreement with you that it was consensual sex, unless he drugged her up or something, in which case it should be treated as rape.
Let's see what the courts make of this...
PS: I found your blog via your Lonely Planet forum profile. :-)
Hocus Poke-us!!!! (haaaaaa LOL in my office with people staring!) LOVE IT!
Nadia, I'm not religious, but I do believe in magic (but that's a long story for a long post sometime). I don't believe people should be believing that others will cure their problems - or that they should be paying for it.
I also agree that if he drugged her, charges should be brought.
Where on the Lonely Planet forum? Fasssscinating. :)
Thanks for commenting.
Hey Desert Girl, here's a link to the Lonely Planet topic I was talking about:
