"An Australian woman has been arrested and jailed in Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates for 'writing bad words on social media', ABC reports.
Jodi Magi, aged 39, posted a photo to Facebook she had taken of a car parked across two disabled parking spaces outside her apartment in Abu Dhabi.
She blanked out the licence number and did not post any identifiable detail, according to the ABC's PM program on Monday night.
But a complaint landed Ms Magi in an Abu Dhabi court, where she was found guilty of "writing bad words on social media about a person" and told she would be deported." She will be released because she carries the passport of a Western country.
