Saudi academic told to return ‘caged’ daughter to UK

A Saudi academic must facilitate the return of his 21-year-old daughter to the UK, a British High Court judge has ruled.

Amina Al-Jeffery — who grew up in Swansea and who has dual British and Saudi Arabian nationality — that says her father, Saudi Arabian academic Mohammed Al-Jeffery, has locked her up because she “kissed a guy”.

Lawyers representing Ms Al-Jeffery have taken legal action and asked Mr Justice Holman to look at ways of helping her.
