I think you said earlier that the penalty in this case was too lenient. Looks like the local prosecutor agrees with you.

Dubai: The Dubai Public Prosecution has appealed to the courts to apply stiffer punishments against four young UAE nationals who were convicted of gang-raping a flight attendant last week.

Appealing against the initial ruling, the public prosecution asked the Dubai Court of Appeal to apply the stiffest punishments, as per the UAE Penal Code, against the four nationals, a judicial source told Gulf News on Tuesday.

The Dubai Court of First Instance sentenced each of the four, identified as S.Z., 21, A.Z. and K.S., both 20, and I.A., 19, to two years in jail.

The convicts were also ordered to jointly pay the victim Dh10,001 in temporary compensation.
