A 74-year-old British grandfather will face public flogging by Saudi authorities after being arrested for the possession of homemade wine and is feared that he may not be able to surpass horrible 350 lashes since he is a cancer survivor and an asthma patient.   

Telegraph reports that the Saudi Arabian resident for 25 years, Karl Andree, has already served a one-year sentence in a brutal Jeddah prison after he was arrested in August 2014 by religious police transporting alcohol beverages in his car. Briman prison is notorious in the area for "torture and inhuman conditions."

"My dad broke the rules in a country that does not allow alcohol, but he's served his time," his daughter, Kirsten, told the Sun tabloid. "Dad is 74 and not a well man. I worry he won't survive this ordeal."

Andree, who has survived cancer three times, has been staying in Saudi Arabia as he works for local oil companies. Washington Post reports that the Briton even stayed in the conservative country without his wife, Verity, who needs to go back to Britain as she suffers from Alzheimer's disease. Andree's children even said that their father chose to stay there because he was "quite happy there."

 "Our father has given 25 years of his working life to Saudi Arabia, and this is how he is treated. He now needs medical care for his cancer and Asthma, and there is no doubt in our mind that 350 lashes will kill him," Andree's younger son, Simon, emotionally said according to the Sun.

Children of Andree have already asked for assistance before the British parliament to spare their ailing father from the brutal consequence since he already served a year in prison despite his poor condition.

The impending brutal ordeal that the pensioner faces has forced Britain's Prime Minister David Cameron to cancel plans of establishing prison service to the Middle East giant. 

The Telegraph further reports that Cameron also wrote a letter protesting the decision over the jailed Briton's case. This places ties between Saudi Arabia and Britain under strain.

Meanwhile, the British parliament promised Andree's family that they will assist in lobbying clemency for the sickly pensioner. A foreign office spokesman even told Telegraph that they are continuously checking on Andree's welfare and are frequently reaching out to lawyers and Andree's family.

Under the Wahhabi interpretation of Islam, alcohol, narcotics, pork, pornography and weapons are strictly prohibited in the strict kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
