Sunland executive 'not arrested' in Dubai

The Department of Foreign Affairs has denied a report 13 Australians have been detained in connection with a property scandal in Dubai.

It follows reports that 13 Australians had been arrested in connection with a bribery scandal, including three industry heavyweights.

But DFAT says Australians in the United Arab Emirates under detention or arrest have been charged with a range of offences, from relatively minor to relatively serious and some of the cases date back to February 2007.
