I was stuck at the airport in Dubai for hours due to an interrogation.
The airport staff kept giving me conflicting information about when they would release me.
I was worried that I would be sent to jail, but luckily, they let me go.
I had to go through a urine test as part of the process.
My friends left the airport and went to the hotel without me.

—I had a nug of marijuana in my backpack that they found during security check.
How long did you have to wait at the airport?

Did they eventually release you?
—Yes, they finally let me go after hours of interrogation.
Were your friends supportive during the ordeal?
—Unfortunately, my friends left the airport and went to the hotel without waiting for me.
Will you be able to visit Dubai again?
