DUBAI: A court in the United Arab Emirates on Wednesday overturned a prison sentence for US citizen and rights lawyer Asim Ghafoor, a lawyer representing Ghafoor said.
Ghafoor was ordered to pay a fine of 5 million dirhams ($1.36 million), his lawyer told Reuters.
Ghafoor was detained last month while transiting through Dubai airport on charges related to an in absentia conviction for money laundering.
