A British teenager, Marcus Fakana, has pleaded for clemency from Dubai's ruler, Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, after being sentenced to prison for a consensual relationship with a 17-year-old girl. Authorities arrested Fakana, 19, after the girl's mother reported their messages to them. While the legal age where a girl can consent to intimacy in the UK is 16, it is 18 in Dubai. https://buff.ly/NmSauAa #uk #news #dubai #marcusfakana #ageofconsent
