ABU DHABI // Two workers have denied a charge of sex outside of marriage.

Prosecutors told the Criminal Court that JA, from India, trespassed into the home of his lover's sponsor and had sex with SA.

Both admitted they met regularly but said they had not had sex. The man claimed he was planning on proposing to the woman, which was why he went to her sponsor's home.

The case was adjourned to April 11.
