A Scots dad who was locked up in an Iraqi jail has spoken of the heartbreaking moment his cellmate begged him 'don't forget about me' when he was released.
Brian Glendinning, 43, was in jail for more than two months in Baghdad after he was arrested in September over an unpaid debt owed to Qatar National Bank. The dad-of-thee, from Kincardine, Fife, shared his cell with Lebanese national Hussein Yactine, 36, who was also locked up over an paid debt to the same bank.
But when Brian's release was secured, Hussein was left behind with hope starting to dwindle. Now the Scot has vowed not to turn his back on his prison pal, with his dad even sending money to Hussein's family.
