Girl, 6, raped in Jumeirah restaurant toilet in Dubai

A cleaner stood before a Dubai criminal court on Wednesday on charges of raping a six-year-old girl in the women’s toilet in a Jumeirah restaurant.

The incident allegedly took place two months ago, but the accused, A.H., a 27-year-old Bangladeshi, denied the charges.

The child’s father, Z.W., a Jordanian, told prosecutors that his daughter went to the bathroom to check on her loose tooth and to use the toilet. 
He briefly stood outside the door before returning to the table.

Five minutes later, the father asked his wife to check on their daughter, but the daughter had already stepped out of the toilet looking incredibly pale.

“When I asked my daughter if she managed to see her tooth, she said the mirror was too high for her, and then I heard her whisper to her mother about a man who touched her private parts,” said Z.W.

The father told the court his daughter said that while she was using the bathroom the cleaner followed her inside.
