Dhahran - The two British nurses imprisoned in Saudi Arabia for murder will be home within a fortnight, their lawyer said yesterday.
Deborah Parry (39) and Lucille McLauchlan (32) would be free within 10 to 14 days, said Saudi-based lawyer Salah al-Hejailan. "Favourable consideration" was being given to their release, he said.
But the families of both Parry and McLauchlan said today they were unaware of any movement towards an early release date. Both women have been in jail for 16 months after being charged with murdering an Australian nurse colleague.
