MY GOD some of these posts are unbelievably stupid and misogynous.
I've been to the Madinat and to Trilogy and it's just another club. ITS NOT in a dodgy area, it's a very safe area (or one would believe so until this story was released). It's a tourist area with the best hotels in all of Dubai and the 7 star Burg Al Arab overlooking it. Jumeira is possibly the smartest part of Dubai.
What in heavens name is making some of you dickheads think that she was IN ANY WAY "asking for it" or acting stupidly. You must be wind up merchants OR terminally STUPID.

Idiots the lot of you.
FACTS:
The Gang worked from 2 cars. One group scared the girl witless and the other group played "nice guys" and offered her a lift away from a frightening situation when no taxis were close by to escape in. Any man could chose that option and not be accused of making a stupid choice.
If my daughter made that choice would I think her unwise? NO.
Would I think that a woman aged in her twenties should have to avoid this area? NO.
Women have the right to flirt with men.
Women have the right to get drunk,
Women have the right to GET LAID,
They NEVER "deserve" to be GANG raped after a night out!
She DID NOTHING WRONG
ABSOLUTELY NOTHING
Anybody thinking otherwise is a complete Neanderthal and doesn’t have the intelligence to be anywhere the controls of an aircraft. A bunch of losers are making some very dumb comments on this thread.
