A British woman who avoided a jail term after being convicted of having sex on a Dubai beach said the ruling "proves our innocence".

Michelle Palmer, 36, of Oakham, Rutland, was speaking after a judge quashed their three-month sentences. Along with Vince Acors, 34, of Bromley, south east London, she successfully appealed against the conviction at a Dubai court.

Speaking afterwards on her mobile telephone, she said: "I'm not saying anything. It just proves our innocence after all the bad stuff that was written. That's it."
