Drinking Alcohol on Board Emirates Flight to Dubai - Wise?

Just recently a professional women with three young children was widely reportedly as being asked at Dubai Airport by security as to whether she had drunk alcohol on board her incoming Emirate flight. She admitted that she had drunk but one glass of wine which was offered free as cabin service. For this she was arrested and will likely have to remain in a stinking jail for over a year. Meanwhile she has had to close her dental practice and has already lost over £30,000 in legal fees. Was this a deliberate attempt by the airline to create this situation, or were other motives involved? Either ways shouldn't Westerners be advised NEVER to drink alcohol on Emirates flights or on all similar airlines?
