In the United Arab Emirates, Patience Sopuru Davidson, a Nigerian lady, was found guilty of carelessness and given a one-month prison sentence.
On November 14, a Twitter user going by the handle @Chetexxx5, who claims to be a relative of the victim, used the microblogging site to warn others about her situation.
According to @Chetexxx5, her younger sister, a caregiver at the Al Ain Center for Care and Rehabilitation Center of the Disabled in Abu Dhabi, was imprisoned after one of her students sliced his ear as a result of spending 30 minutes in the bathroom.
Sopuru was set to finish her jail term on October 15, 2022, but according to @Chetexxx5, they have not heard from her since then.
She wrote,
“Salam halaikum, I want to bring to you notice about my younger sister who is a caregiver at Al-Ain center for care and rehabilitation, on the 15th of September 2022, we got a message from her ex colleague that she was arrested for staying 30 minutes in the bathroom and one of her students cut his ears by himself,” the tweet reads.
“She was taken to the police station in Al-Ain and immediately jailed for a month for her negligence, October 15th is believed to be a month, till date we have not heard from my sister, the HR are not replying us
