Man jailed for wearing T-shirt
Posted by N10452
Raffi Nernekian, a Lebanese national, was arrested after an argument with a local man about the T-shirt, in which the key parts of Beckham’s body are obscured either by her hands or the logo “Protect the skin you’re in”.
Mr Nernekian was subsequently jailed for offending public decency for a month, a sentence upheld on appeal. He will be deported after serving his sentence, even though he has lived in the city for five years

“How Hezbollah thugs will find new jobs, if they are out of Iran’s Khamenei payroll? Hezbollah are professional thugs, it will be hard for them to go back to Lebanon and Syria and sit waiting for old age to come, and remembering how was good to explode, beat and kill innocent defenseless people.”

Mano I’m talking abt the places in dxb; as for Lebanon I’m no longer up-to-date but there’s a restaurant that’ll never miss everytime I go to Lebanon it’s called é café in the old souk of jbeil (Byblos).
As for dxb I never miss the brunch at the jumeirah hotel on Fridays the restaurant that is by the seaside then for a sunset apero above it at the 360.
Le kif total!
