Sept. 2: Briton Vince Acors (L), who is accused of having sex on a beach with a British woman, walks out of a Dubai court.
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates — Dubai court documents say that a verdict in the trial of a British couple accused of having sex on a beach will be pronounced next week.
The Dubai court records say that Tuesday's session was postponed until Oct. 16 when a verdict is expected.
Michelle Palmer and Vince Acors face up to two years in prison and deportation from Dubai if convicted.
The two were arrested in July on a Dubai beach and later charged with engaging in sex outside of marriage, public indecency and drunkenness.
They have acknowledged they were drunk, but denied having sex.
