Adnan Syed has had murder charges against him dropped after spending 23 years in jail. Last month, he was released from prison after the conviction was overturned.
The 41-year-old was found guilty of the 1999 murder of his former girlfriend Hae Min Lee but has always maintained his innocence, and was the subject of the podcast Serial's hit first season, reports the Mirror.
Syed will now be able to live as a free man as after the conviction was overturned in September, prosecutors had just 30 days to charge him again or let him walk. Serial raised serious questions over the evidence used during the trial in 2000, which saw Syed sentenced to life in prison plus 30 years.
