Hopes raised for Australians held in Dubai

BRIBERY charges against two Australian property executives in Dubai have been sent back to prosecutors for re-examination in an unexpected move that raises the possibility the case may be abandoned.

Families of the two men, Matthew Joyce and Marcus Lee, had expected Dubai's Ruler's Court to find them guilty at a hearing yesterday.

While the ruling provides a small glimmer of hope for the pair, it means there is no end in sight to a legal saga that has seen them detained in the emirate for more than three years.
