Marcus Fakana joined his parents for what was supposed to be a short holiday starting August 26, 2024.

But he is now stuck in Dubai, facing decades in prison after the girl’s parents looked through her phone and reported him to the police when they got home.
Fakana claims he did not know the girl was months younger than him when they met. Their relationship would be legal in the UK.
Dubai has only recently legalised out-of-wedlock s£x for tourists but still has a strict Islamic legal system.

“We had a wonderful time together. We really liked each other but she was secretive with her family because they were strict. My parents knew about our relationship but she couldn’t tell hers. She had to meet me without telling them it was to see a boy”, Marcus Fakana told Detained in Dubai.
