Family and supporters of a British father who was reportedly jailed in Saudi Arabia over a tweet say he is “trapped in a living hell”, as they appealed to the UK government to take urgent action.
Ahmed al-Doush, a father-of-four from Manchester, was arrested on 31 August last year while on holiday in Saudi Arabia with his family. He was sentenced to 10 years in prison in May this year on terrorism charges over social media posts about Egypt, Sudan and Gaza , according to human rights group Amnesty International.
