US deports Saudi national Al Turki after prison

Homaidan Al Turki, a Saudi national, is set to be deported to Saudi Arabia after nearly two decades in a US prison. His family was notified of the imminent repatriation this past Sunday. Al Turki was convicted in 2006 on charges of unlawful imprisonment and assault. He was released last month and has been in ICE custody while deportation procedures were finalized, following a plea agreement. His family expressed gratitude to Saudi leadership for their support. The case, which began in 2004, sparked controversy and allegations of bias, with Al Turki maintaining his innocence.
