BREAKING NEWS British teenager jailed in Dubai for sex with fellow UK tourist is HOME after being freed following royal pardon
A British teenager jailed in Dubai for having sex with a fellow UK tourist is finally home after being freed following a royal pardon.
Marcus Fakana, now 19, from Tottenham, was 18-years-old when he was arrested for having sex with a 17-year-old girl from London while he was on holiday with his parents in the UAE city in August.
The girl was just one month away from turning 18, but sex with anyone under the age of 18 is an offence in the Gulf state.
He returned to the UK on Thursday July 3 following several months in prison.
