While recalling the mishappening, the girl said she wanted to visit Al Ain early morning on that day, so she approached the public road to find a way to reach there.

She added that while she was waiting for a mode of public transport, a pickup driver stopped by her side and asked about who she was waiting for and where she wanted to go.

The driver then told her that he would drop her at Al Ain after she told him about it, to which she agreed.

She added that she was surprised as the driver stopped by the side of the road just after a few kilometres and asked her for some sexual favour as he wanted to take advantage of the empty road.
