Grooverider released from prison

October 12th, 2008

BBC Radio 1 DJ Raymond Bingham, aka Grooverider, has been released from prison in Dubai. He was arrested at Dubai International Airport in November 2007 after forgetting to remove a cannabis joint from his trousers and was sentenced to 4 years in prison earlier this year.

He was pardoned as part of a Ramadan amnesty after serving just 10 months of his sentence.
