London, July 25 - Singer Amy Winehouse has been cleared of punching a dancer at a charity ball.

Burlesque dancer Sherene Flash claimed that the 25-year-old hit her forcefully in the right eye after she asked the singer for a photograph while backstage at the Prince's Trust Ball in Berkeley Square, central London, last September, reported mirror.co.uk.

But District Judge Timothy Workman, sitting at City of Westminster Magistrates' Court in London, dismissed the case against Winehouse Friday.

'I'm relieved. I'm going home,' said the singer as she left the courtroom.
