Hmmm, I wonder if the international media will pick up on this? Evidently some Pakistani man married an Indian lady who was the widow of a UAE man, and slept with the Indian lady's + UAE man's 4 daughters, impregnated a few of them, and now has been found guily of some crime and sentenced to be stoned to death. Yowza. The UAE probably doesn't want this kind of press, then again some local court has sentenced him to be stoned to death, so what are they gonna do?

Death by stoning case goes to Supreme Court

Ajman: The Federal Supreme Court is looking into the case of a man who was found guilty of having illicit affairs with his four stepdaughters and sentenced to death by stoning.

The Federal Sharia Court of First Instance in Ajman earlier sentenced the Pakistani man, identified as A., in his fifties, to be stoned to death after being found guilty of having sexual relationships with his stepdaughters. The appeal court upheld the sentence and the case has been transferred to the Federal Supreme Court.

The four girls were sentenced to 80 lashes each. The sentences have already been carried out.

They were charged with "allowing" their stepfather to sleep with them. The girls reportedly gave birth to more than 10 children by the man. One of them was eight months pregnant when they were arrested in 2005, according to police officials.

The girls aged between 21 and 26 told the judge their stepfather used to threaten them with a knife, forcing them to surrender.

The stepfather admitted his guilt at all stages of the court process. And he told the court that he is the father of some of the children but the others are not his.

The sisters' mother is from India and was accused of aiding and abetting the stepfather. She was married to an Emirati but after his death 12 years ago married the Pakistani.

Early last year the court started questioning the sisters and their stepfather about his sexual relationship with his national stepdaughters dating back to 1996.

One of the girls told the court that after she gave birth to a child her stepfather took away the baby to give to someone else. The court asked her if she ever wondered where the child was and she said her stepfather had assured her the child was doing fine.
