"We received official police data, just for shooting in the nude on the balcony, 12 girls were detained, and not 40, as previously assumed, while there are no Russian citizens among them," RIA Novosti quotes a representative of the diplomatic mission.

Earlier it was reported that 40 people were detained in Dubai, including eight Russian women, for participating in a nude photo session.

The consulate general also said that the organizer of the filming could face up to 1.5 years in prison and a fine of 50 thousand dirhams (about $ 14 thousand).
