As Donald Trump and the Saudi crown prince, Mohammed bin Salman, prepare to meet in Riyadh on Tuesday to celebrate a “golden age” in trade, a British national will appear in a Riyadh court facing the threat of an extended prison sentence for a tweet.
Ahmed al-Doush’s UK-based lawyer, Haydee Dijkstal, said she was not clear what offence Doush was alleged to have committed or how the trial proceedings were being conducted. He is due in court on Monday.
