    Man, this is a hard one. On one hand, there’s this need to respect others’ beliefs so we can live in this idyllic, peaceful world – yet on the other, how can we just let this be?

    Basically, a man let his 20 year old daughter drown after holding back lifeguards who were trying to save her. Reportedly, he didn’t want ‘strange men’ touching her and would rather let her die than dishonour her. The man, an expat from an Asian country, was tall and strong and physically able to hold back the lifeguards. He has been arrested and charged by the United Arab Emirates . Lt. Col. Ahmed Burqibah, deputy director of Dubai police’s search and rescue department, reported that:

    “Two [lifeguards] were at the beach, and they rushed to help the girl. He started pulling and [holding back] the [lifeguards] and got violent with them. He told them that he prefers his daughter being dead than being touched by a strange man.”

    By the time the father had stopped fighting with the lifeguards, the young woman’s heart had stopped beating.

    “She died unfortunately, at a time when she had a chance to live, especially [since the lifeguards] were so close to her to [pulling] her out of the water,” Burqibah said. “This is one of the incidents [that] I cannot forget. It shocked me and many others who were involved in the case.”
