Dubai, June 20: A Lebanese man is facing 30 days in jail in Dubai for wearing a cancer awareness T-shirt featuring an image of a partially clothed Victoria Beckham.
The man, identified only as RN because of Dubai’s secretive court system, lost an appeal against the conviction for offending public decency.
RN, 28, was wearing the T-Shirt with the slogan “Protect the skin you’re in” last November when he was confronted by another Arab man, who complained to the police.
He was arrested and initially charged on three counts: public indecency, drunkenness and fleeing a public confrontation.
