DOHA: A criminal court has sentenced two youths to 15 years of rigorous imprisonment for indulging in immoral act with a woman after drinking.
There were in all four persons — two men and two women — involved in the crime and they first consumed alcohol in a city bar. Initially, there were two men and one woman in the group. The woman in the group called in another woman, a friend.
She joined the group and after drinking they drove in the car of accused number one. The idea was to drop the two women to their homes.
On the way they stopped the car and collected takeaway food from a restaurant and convinced the two women to have dinner with them.
They then drove to the home of one of the accused men and there one of them began doing immoral act with the woman, who was invited to the bar.
The other woman happened to see it and raised alarm in fear. She sent messages to her friends on whatsapp and also called in the police for help.
She ran away from the house in fear barefoot and a police vehicle on its way to the house, intercepted her. The foursome were taken into custody and charged.
The matter went to court which sentenced the two youths to 15 years of rigorous imprisonment for doing immoral act and sentenced the woman who was their victim, to three months in jail for drinking.
The court, however, kept the sentence suspended for three years, which means that the victim would have to serve the sentence if she repeats the crime in that period.
The court sentenced the other woman who invited the victim to the bar to six months in jail and gave a fine of QR3,000 in absentia for drinking and calling the victim over for a drink, Al Sharq reported yesterday.
