AN Australian is living on fermented camel meat in stifling conditions in a United Arab Emirates prison.

Jupiter Mines director Jeremy Snaith, 37, and another Australian, yet to be identified, are in the Al Wathba Prison outside Abu Dhabi, according to spokesman Sean Mulcahy.

They are on drug charges facing up to 15 years in prison and lashings, after an incident on a flight from Sydney.

Another Australian, Jupiter Mines director David Evans is also in Abu Dhabi after being bailed.

Mr Mulcahy said the three were arrested on landing on April 27.

They were charged with intoxication, indecent exposure and sexual harassment on the international flight.

They denied all charges and were released three days later. Snaith and the unnamed man were then re-arrested on May 10 after blood tests returned positive for drugs.
