In questi giorni nei mall del Sultanato tutto e' decorato con rose e cuori. Le promoter dei vari ristoranti continuano a fermarmi con volantini sdolcinati che promuovono le varie offerte full package per la serata degli innamorati. Per il prossimo anno nel full package proporro' di inserire anche l' eventuale fidanzato/a.
Vi rendo comunque partecipe di un' annosa vicenda tra due innamorati avvenuta non lontano da qui, nella spocchiosa Dubai. La vicenda e' stata portata di fronte al Giudice. Vi copio e incollo l'articolo che compare addirittura alla sezione crimini del Gulf News:
Dubai: An Arab ambassador said he decided to call off his wedding immediately after he discovered that his wife-to-be, who wears a niqab, was bearded and cross-eyed.
The ambassador claimed that the bride's mother deceived his mother, when she went to see his Gulf national wife-to-be, by showing her pictures of the bride's sister.
The Arab man, who also holds the title of minister plenipotentiary, claimed to a Sharia court judge in Dubai that the bride's family showed his mother photos of the bride's sister and not the woman he was going to marry.
Sources close to the case told Gulf News that the groom only saw the woman a few times. He did not realise that she had a beard because she wore the niqab the few times he met her, added the source.
"Every time the couple met, the bride would do her best not to reveal her entire face. After the ambassador and the woman, who is a physician, signed the marriage contract, the groom was sitting with the bride… he claimed to the Sharia court officials that when he wanted to kiss his wife-to-be, he discovered that she was bearded and cross-eyed as well," claimed the source.
The ambassador then decided to call off the wedding party and lodged a divorce claim alleging that he was tricked by his parents-in-law and incurred emotional and moral damage.
In his lawsuit, the groom also asked the bride to repay him his Dh500,000, the amount which he claimed he spent on jewellery, clothes and gifts.

During the trial, the bride asked the judge to dismiss the groom's lawsuit and demanded him to pay her alimony after the Arab called off the wedding party.
Gulf News also learnt that the ambassador requested the Sharia court to refer the Gulf national woman to a specialist to have her examined for hormonal deficiencies.
The court referred the bride to a specialist who countered the ambassador's claims and reported that she did not suffer any hormonal problems.
The court divorced the couple and rejected the groom's request that the pre-marriage gifts be returned.

Nonostante nella vita mi occupi di tutt' altro, avrei pagato per essere l' avvocato che ha seguito la causa.
[Spesso in Italia mi ritrovo impelagata in discussioni con alcuni troppo intenti criticare i miei cari amici turbantati di professione musulmana, sbandierando i diritti delle donne, le pari opportunita', e tutte queste cose che nel nostro paese, spesso, siamo tra i primi a violare. Questi tipi spesso identificano nel 'velo' i problemi del mondo moderno. Se mi state leggendo, fatevi una risata e considerate questo post il mio regalo di S. Valentino!]
Sapevo che la donna barbuta avrebbe avuto successo :-)
