Sister of Saudi activist says she is ‘really not well'

Available for over a year

The family of the jailed Saudi women's rights activist Loujain al-Hathloul says her case has been transferred to a court which deals with suspected terrorists, at the resumption of her trial in Riyadh. Loujain al-Hathloul has been detained for some two and a half years - last month she went on hunger strike in protest at her conditions in prison. Her family says she appeared weak in court, with her body shaking uncontrollably, but was able to read out the four pages of her defence. Lina al-Hathloul - Loujain's sister - gave us her reaction to the news. (Photo: LLoujain al-Hathloul was prominent in the campaign to win the right for Saudi women to drive. Credit: Reuters)
