Dubai: A college girl, who was accused of avenging herself against her rapist by branding his penis with a hot knife and fatally beating him in collaboration with her two classmates denied charges in the court on Tuesday.
Prosecutors accused the three Nigerian students with fatal assault and heating the knife to burn the private parts of their countryman, who the 20-year-old college girl, L.O., claimed he raped her while she was intoxicated.
Prosecutors said L.O. and her crime associates, 21-year-old K.T. and 23-year-old A.S., beat their countryman S.B. to death and branded his penis with a heated knife in an act of revenge for having sex with the girl against her will.
"No sir I did not take revenge by doing so. I am not guilty," argued L.O. when she strongly refuted her accusations before the Dubai Court of first Instance.
K.T. and A.S. also pleaded not guilty and rejected the accusation of beating the victim to death when they defended themselves before Presiding Judge Al Saeed Mohammad Barghout.
According to the charges sheet, the suspected students prepared for the assault in advance and brought a knife and belts. Instead of reporting the police that S.B. raped L.O., they lured the victim to a flat where they brutally beat him until he collapsed powerless. Then they ripped off his clothes and L.O. burnt his penis with the heated knife.

Prosecutors charged the defendants with fatal beating associated with a second crime, that is molesting S.B. by stripping him off and burning his private parts.
The male students were additionally charged with consuming liquor.
Chief Prosecutor Khaled Al Zarouni asked the court to implement the toughest punishment, ten years imprisonment, against the defendants.
Dubai Police's forensic doctor told prosecutors that the victim died due to internal bleeding in the skull. The doctor said the victim fell to the floor due to brutal beating and hit his head.
Court records said the incident happened after the suspects, the victim and some friends partied at Burj Khalifa. Then they left to a friend's flat.
Police told the court that L.O. claimed during questioning that she woke up and realised S.B. naked and having sex with her against her will. She alleged that he raped her because she was under the influence of alcohol.
Police allege that L.O. said: "I was outraged and asked K.T. and A.S. to beat S.B. in revenge for what he did to me. We were at A, S.'s flat and asked him to come. When he confessed that he raped me… we jointly beat him. I slapped him but I didn't use any tool to assault him. K.T. and A.S. beat him with their hands and a belt".
An Emirati police lieutenant testified that S.B.'s body was discovered in a flat in Tecom in Jebel Ali. Primary interrogations led to the defendants' arrest.
"K.T. and A.S. said they assaulted S.B. They alleged that he ran over the corners of the flat in an attempt to avoid the assault. The suspects assumed S.B.'s injuries were not serious said they didn't report the authorities assuming that," said the lieutenant.
The court will hear the forensic doctor when it reconvenes on February 7.
