Two British lawyers, who are also 37-year-old twin sisters, face charges in the United Arab Emirates city of Dubai over an alleged drunken rampage last August that ended up with the women physically assaulting a female police officer and yelling ethnic slurs about Arab women, according to reports in the British media.
But now, according to a report in Britain’s Daily Mail newspaper, it appears that porn fans may be familiar with Alena and Sasha Parker, who now work for the elite Dubai-based law firm Al Safar & Partners.
According to the Mail report, the “Anarchy Twins” who went by the names Misha and Sasha in a series of videos under the title London Shaggers, are the same twins accused in the Dubai assault case.
The Parker twins were born in 1981, in Belarus, a state that at the time was part of the Soviet Union, with the surname Velikanava, the Mail reported. They emigrated to London, England in 2001 and attended law school there. The London Shaggers videos were released in 2006, when the twins were still in law school and may have been intended to help pay for their legal education.
Alena Velikanava married British TV director Miles Parker, taking his name. But the twins are so close that her sister legally changed her last name to Parker as well. They gained British citizenship in 2010.
The pair appeared in court Monday in Dubai, and asserted that they are innocence of the assault charges. According to police there, the sisters—known for putting their lavish, party-loving lifestyle on display via social media—were found drunk and “behaving outrageously” in Dubai on August 4 last year.
Police say that the sisters began shouting at them as they attempted to treat Sasha, who was slightly injured, and then inexplicably attacked a police woman, tackling her to the ground.
According to the Mail report, the twins claim that they were acting in self-defense after being taken to the desert in a van, threatened with guns and tortured by the cops. The twins’ lawyers said that they would produce security camera video recordings would prove that the Parker twins are innocent.
The London Shaggers videos, in which Alena uses the pseudonym Misha, are advertised as featuring “identical twin sisters, Sasha and Misha, fulfilling every man’s fantasy by doing the same guy.”
