Fighting to see her children
I've just recorded an interview with a British mother who was jailed in Dubai for adultery.
Her name is Marnie Pearce - she denies ever being unfaithful to her then husband.
Marnie now claims her ex-husband is stopping her from seeing her two young boys.
In this exclusive interview, Marnie talks about what prison was like and how she's about to start the fight to get to see her children once more.

This piece made a big impact on listeners. As that father pointed out, there are lots of similarities with here in England - don't know the rules in Scotland, NI or Wales.

Is there a genuine basis in religious teaching for the extremity of punishments for adultery in the Islamic world? There's been stonings in Somalia, which seems like such an extreme, but even jailing someone is on the same kind of moral spectrum.
What a horrible fate for this poor woman - thank you for bringing it to light.
