Australian sentenced to lashing in Saudi Arabia returns home

 

BRENDAN TREMBATH: An Australian man accused of blasphemy in Saudi Arabia and sentenced to 75 lashes is on his way home. Mansour Almaribe was detained during a pilgrimage last month. He was alleged to have insulted companions of the Prophet Mohammed. They were the prophet's early disciples. There are now questions about how much the Australian Government did to help in this case.
