#1 While it's true that any culture produces nutjobs like Sammy, what is more damning is that Saudi Embassy staff tried to hush the whole thing up :

During the trial it was alleged that Saudi embassy officials tried to bribe the girl into dropping the charges against Shadukhi, whose father is a retired Saudi official.

Tut, tut...

#2 Shadukhi was convicted of sample [sic] counts of false imprisonment, making threats to kill and causing actual bodily harm. ... He was found not guilty of rape and causing grievous bodily harm with intent. He was formally cleared of unlawful wounding and a second charge of actual bodily harm after the jury failed to return a verdict."

I guess it wasn't his fault that she fell down that 60' embankment and almost killed herself during her escape, right? I mean, if she'd stayed those things would never have happened, so they're her own fault!

What the #$%^& is going on in the UK these days?

#3 Is it possible that he was conduting some kind of research for his thesis? Maybe this was a Saudi "art piece." Is this the same school that Uday graduated from?

#4 An obvious case of "honor torture". Says here in the Koran you're free to go, Sammy. Peace be upon you.

#6 Quote of the day:
"You threatened to slaughter her like a sheep...That was the main reason that she eventually tried to escape."

All the other things were so much fun, she wouldn't have wanted to leave at all!

#7 "Only 5 years!?!?"

Why are you so suprised? I'm sure the Saudi government had something to do with the verdict.

#8 Five years might be enough. Let's find a vacant hole in the Tower of London (of Katheryn of Aragon and Mary, Queen of Scots fame), preferably below ground, where the ooze from the Thames seeps in when it gets cold. Chain him with one arm on the wall, and one to the floor. Feed him by throwing rotten potatoes at his head. He can drink while we sluice him off now and then.

THOSE five years would be enough.

#9 I hope the guiy is physically small and gets adopted then sold to others for a carton of smokes.

#10 On initially reading this, I thought it was happening somewhere in the ME. But this piece of shit is in *my* country. Fucker. I'm really hoping that SH (aka Steve) is on the right track and that someone makes his day - repeatedly.
