PLEASE please sign the petition, which has been signed by Amnesty and which will be taken to the UAE Embassy in London, calling for the immediate release of Marnie from prison in Dubai and for the deportation order to be lifted so that Marnie can be near her children - and encourage all those you know to sign! (It only takes a minute!!)

Marnie is currently unfairly imprisoned in Dubai on charges of adultery after being framed by her Egyptian ex-husband so that he could gain sole custody of their children, ages 4 and 7. Her ex-husband has now been awarded full custody, as under Shariah law a woman automatically loses custody of her children if she is found guilty of adultery, as she is deemed to be an unfit mother... Marnie is set to be deported from Dubai to the UK without her children after completing her sentence in a month's time and faces not seeing her boys again until they are legally able to find her at the age of 18.
The British Government has done virtually nothing to help Marnie! Please email the Foreign Secretary David Miliband and ask him to do the right thing and intervene in this situation on behalf of Marnie and her children. His email address is [email protected].
