November 28th, 2008 - 1:23 pm ICT by ANI London, November 28 (ANI): The British couple convicted of romping on a Jumeirah Beach in Dubai are facing difficulties getting home, as they have not received their passports from the concerned authorities.
Michelle Palmer, 36, and Vince Acors, 34, who wanted to fly back to the UK over the next 24 hours after their jail terms were suspended.
Acors lawyer Andrew Crossley says that the couple now face the threat of a day or so in jail while deportation laws are clarified.
