Mother freed in Dubai adultery case

A BRITISH mother jailed in the United Arab Emirates for adultery was released yesterday.

Marnie Pearce, 40, was handed a three-month prison sentence after a Dubai court ruled that she had cheated on her Egyptian ex-husband, Ihab El Labban.

A spokesman for the Foreign and Commonwealth Office confirmed that Pearce, originally from Bracknell, Berkshire, left jail yesterday.
