Yeepa how will he survive this lash, na wa ooo!!! The family of a cancer-ridden British pensioner have made a
desperate plea to save him from being publicly flogged 350 times in Saudi
Arabia after he was caught with home-made wine.The children of Karl Andree, 74, fear the barbaric
punishment will kill him after he has already spent a year in a notorious
prison in the strict Islamic kingdom.
They say his body is weak from years of cancer treatment and
are appealing to David Cameron to personally intervene to bring him home.Mr Andree, whose wife is dying in a home in the UK, was
arrested in Jeddah last year after police found bottles of wine in his car.
He was sentenced to 12 months in prison and flogging for
breaching the country's strict anti-alcohol laws.He has served his time in jail but is still locked up as Saudi
officials wait to carry out the lashings.
