He told the magistrate the woman was walking down the road while he was waving at his uncle and as he was putting down his hand he touched her breast. He said he apologized to the unidentified lady and continued walking.

But the magistrate said “you did not merely touch her, you grabbed her breast. Do you think that is correct behavior?”

“No miss that is indecent behavior. That is not right.” Ali said, asking the court to impose a fine.

As the magistrate imposed the jail term, Ali said “Thank you Miss. Sorry for upsetting you this morning.”
