British Man Faces 350 Lashes In Saudi Arabia,for being caught with homemade wine
Karl Andree was jailed for 12 months after being caught with homemade wine, and is due to be flogged after his custodial term. "He's an old, frail man," he said. "The lashings will kill him. He will keel over and have a heart attack. "We want him home and the Government needs to intervene. "Our mum Verity has Alzheimer's and is deteriorating and he needs to see her." Mr Andree's daughter Kirsten told Sky News the family feels helpless and the plea is "our last resort". She said: "He's holding up reasonably well considering, but to be honest, at 74 - he's survived cancer three times, he's got asthma - he's not a well man. "I'm amazed he's done this well and made it this far. Every day I just feel like he needs to get out of there now." SHARE THIS POST
