An UAE Appeals court has upheld the three-month jail sentence of an Indian for molesting a seven-year-old Algerian girl in a lift here.
The court also upheld the deportation order against him. The incident occurred on December 22 last year.
The accused, 25, working as a delivery boy, tricked the Algerian girl into taking lift with him saying he would return the balance amount from the money her mother had paid him for the lunch she ordered, Khaleej Times reported.
He then molested her in the lift.
However, during interrogation the accused said he touched the girl by mistake.
