A British woman who accused her father of imprisoning her in Jeddah for kissing a man is still waiting to discuss her plight face-to-face with a lawyer, a High Court judge has been told.

Mr Justice Holman analysed Amina Al-Jeffery's case at a hearing in the Family Division of the High Court in London during the summer of 2016.

Miss Al-Jeffery - who grew up in Swansea and has dual British and Saudi Arabian nationality - complained her father Mohammed Al-Jeffery had locked her up for four years in his flat because she had "kissed a guy".

This must be another instance of a muslim who doesn't understand his religion. It couldn't possibly be that he is in fact following it closely. And to be sure, it would be sheer bigotry to claim he was and not want that here.

Because thats exactly the 'logic' we hear from our resident Islam apologists here in TBR when they arent off supporting the gay lobby lawsuits against christian bakers or florists.

The father most assuredly does not understand his religion.  He would have killed her if he did.
