A suspended sentence because the east European girl who was assaulted 'forgave' him, no doubt because she was threatened to. And of course the threat was overlooked

All because of the pilots nationality

Another person would have gotten a year at least

I was referring to LonghornDXB's post. I believe that pilot was an Emirati.
