Children of Briton sentenced to 350 lashes over wine appeal to PM

I'm pretty sure 350 lashes is a death sentence for a 74 year old.

Quote
The children of a British man have called on David Cameron to intervene to save their father from being subjected to 350 lashes in Saudi Arabia. Karl Andree, 74, faces being publicly flogged as part of a punishment imposed after bottles of homemade wine were reportedly found last year in his car by Saudi police enforcing strict laws prohibiting alcohol.

It's their country, their laws. Moral of the story is stay out of there.

Coming to a country near you... soon.
