Re: Urgent! Medical Care in Saudi? Pregnant!
thank you, so we should just say family emergency and that should be enough? i thought the consulate could maybe direct us to some western doctors who may do it for westerners? i couldn't imagine a british/white expat diplomat being refused request for abortion through private medicine? or am i wrong? it just seemed to me before I came that if you're a brit here in saudi, you can get your way somehow? or was i just beyond naive
The consulate will not advise you how to break laws of the host country.

How much does jail time work out for you and your wife in purely cash terms?
As said before, get a flight, just go and do it.
Personal liberty/freedom cannot be measured in £/$/€/SAR

What on earth gave you that idea? Sorry but you are not only being naive but rather arrogant and foolish. Being British counts for very little if you are caught breaking their laws. I suggest you do more research on Shariah Law in KSA before you end up in jail or worse.
