LONDON, Feb. 29 (UPI) -- Police in London reportedly don't plan to charge singer Amy Winehouse in her husband's witness-tampering case.

Winehouse was arrested, interviewed and released in December in an alleged plot to persuade a man to change his testimony against her husband, Blake Fielder-Civil, who is in jail awaiting trial.

Fielder-Civil has been accused of beating up a barman, then trying to pay him to change his story and leave town.

Winehouse was scheduled to return to the police station in connection with the matter, but is no longer considered a suspect and won't be required to do so, People.com said Friday.

"Amy is pleased to be discounted from the investigation and thanks the police for their professionalism in their dealings with her," her representative Tracey Miller said in a statement issued to People.com.
