An officer and a gentleman

What is it about Moroccan secretaries? In the latest extra-marital escapade, a senior government dishdash has been arrested for stabbing his Baluchi military friend:

"The national, a senior government official in the UAE, is believed to have employed a Moroccan woman as his personal secretary, but told her not to work in his office. He rented a flat for her where he would go regularly to meet her and pay her the salary there, sources disclosed."

"The official had made an appointment to meet her today at the flat but changed his mind to make a surprise visit yesterday. He found his friend there and, in a fit of rage, stabbed the Baluchi national, who is a military officer, with a small knife on his face and shoulders."


Lest anyone be concerned about this local gentleman's fitness for office, given his dubious morals and violent temper, the article is quick to reassure:

"The UAE national is highly educated and holds a masters degree in business management."

That's all right then. Just so long as he has a degree, we'll overlook the whoring and stabbing.

Where did this story appear? Usually UAE media would refer to him as Pakistani or Indian rather than reveal him as UAE national.

Heh.. he has degrees, which mean that he stabbed the man pragmatically and scientifically, considering all the marketing and business aspects of it.

Moroccans have a bad reputation in this part of the world. It is the Russian woman equivalent of an Arab. Unfortunately, it ruins it for everyone else trying to make a decent living.

Erm... you might try the two links in the blog post above. My colour scheme is a bit subtle, but the links should appear as bolder text than the rest.

balushi. your comments about cars are like your comments about anything else viz

what is a "baluchi" national and why is the deceased referred to as such? Their is no politically recognized nation of Baloch. Did they mean a UAE national of Baloch origin (Al Balooshi)? Did they mean an Iranian or Pakistani national of the Baloch ethnic group?

Maybe he was related to James Belushi or Monica Belucci.

weird.

To mohamed Alzubair,
Moroccan women supposedly have a "bad" reputation in Dubai because people happen to be VERY stereotypical. I suggest a scietific study instead! Am 100 percent the sisters from Egypt, Lebanon, locals...will be worse. Everybody have their dirty laundry, but it's too bad Moroccans get bad mouthed all the time...maybe they are just scapegoats!
