@uknewss24: UK fitness coach Antonia Bettridge, originally from St Helens in Merseyside, has reportedly been held in Dubai — two years after admitting in a British court to possessing £8,000 in illicit cash. She was stopped by officers on the M62 near Warrington in 2021, where the money was uncovered following a long return journey linked to Gordano Services near Bristol. After receiving a community sentence in the UK, she later relocated to the UAE to continue her career. Now, the Foreign Office has confirmed it is assisting a British national who has been detained in Dubai. So what could happen next? #UKNews #BreakingNews #TrueCrimeUK
