Tori Towey travel ban lifted, and she is free to leave Dubai | Newstalk
Taoiseach Simon Harris tells the Dáil that the UAE's travel ban on Roscommon flight attendant Tori Towey has been lifted.
The charges against Irishwoman Tori Towey in Dubai have been branded ‘absurd’ and ‘truly astonishing’ by a human rights group.
The 28-year-old Roscommon woman was previously detained and was barred from leaving the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
Yesterday, the Dáil heard she is a victim of domestic violence and has been charged with attempting to take her own life.
After approaching police in Dubai for help, she was told she was barred from leaving the country and is facing charges of attempted suicide and abuse of alcohol.
She was due in court before the end of the month.

The next time you think of holidaying in these countries think of this. ... And think of all the others from 3rd world countries, enticed there with the idea of work, who end up with their passports taken and working as slaves basically.
Disgusting behaviour for Dubai authorities, shows how they treat women
This is nothing new. It boggles my mind that people, especially girls, are still drawn in by the shiny stuff in that gold plated backwards dump of a place. There are people doing jail time there for kissing in public.
What do you expect from a `country` that still lives in the dark ages. If you are in Dubai you must remember you are not in a civilised society. Save your money and get out before you annoy them! Let this be a warning to all Irish people thinking of embarking on a working experience, don`t be lured by the money.
Mary Lou wears their garb, then gives out about their culture 🤔😏
We allow this behaviour here and now we are releasing a Rotherham grooming leader. Are our authorities mad??
what do you expect from a completely lawless country and yet they protect gangland criminals...
Dubai exposed as a place to avoid at all costs.
in Islam as you know a woman is part of a man,s chattel. Mary Lou who held the door wide open for Islam to To enter Ireland with her hijab and her approval of the commandeering of Croke Park for the celebration of Islamic customs. Shame on you Mary Lou.
Why no mention of the husband nationality or religion? does he not fit the agenda of a male perpetrator?
The hypocrisy of Mary lou
Millionaire actress Mary lou Mcdonald wants to bring the Muslim law and culture to Ireland . Go figure 🤔
We’re importing the same culture. God bless the women and children of this country
Well done to those who moved quickly to support an Irish citizen.
so sorry for her. that's the typical islamic treatment of women. dubai is all fun and games until you want human rights.
So Sinn Féin doesn't want Irish laws upheld and practiced in Ireland but wants Irish laws to apply in a country outside of the same continent?
I don't understand the draw to Dubai for women . Women are not considered human they are considered property , so whether you move there or simply go on vacation you really need to think about the risks . I wish Tori the best in her future and pick your next partner more carefully than your last .
What did she expect from a Moslem husband? Dine n wine?
She gets way more money than she can get in Ireland.. lawls
I’m so glad that poor woman got home. Now hopefully the government here will do something to help and support abused and beaten up women here at home!!
