Justin Bieber can breathe a (small) sigh of relief this week after a court in Argentina revoked a warrant for his arrest for allegedly attacking a photographer.

The international arrest order issued by Interpol in April for the singer has been lifted, a court source was quoted as telling the Associated Press.

The warrant was issued for Bieber and his two bodyguards after he failed to respond to a summons for allegedly ordering the bodyguards to attack a photographer at a nightclub he and his entourage were at in 2013.

However, charges still stand against him and the court is expected to set a date for questioning.
