I originally heard this being discussed on LBC the day I posted and no mention was made of when it happened but the impression given was that it was current.
Their website states this:

A 20-year-old woman has drowned in Dubai after her father allegedly stopped lifeguards from rescuing her because he did not want her to be touched by "strange men", according to reports.

The article I originally quoted does mention it was some years ago right at the very end so it seems LBC got the wrong end of the stick.
