Limo driver in dock for abusing passenger

A limousine driver has been charged with molestation for allegedly harassing sexually a female passenger.
However, in the Court of First Instance, the 36-year-old Bangladeshi defendant denied touching the American complainant against her will.
According to prosecution records, the incident took place on March 22 when the Bangladeshi driver picked the woman from the Dubai International Airport to drop her at a hotel in Naif.
"He said he suggested she should ride in the front seat to feel more comfortable. He confessed that he touched her arm several times to alleviate her travel fatigue," a policeman quoted the driver as saying.
The driver then tried to give her massage on her thighs but she rejected his offer.
The police found pictures of women saved in the defendant's phone, which sustained her story that he showed her a photo he claimed was of his American friend.
