Sentencing him to eight years, Judge Simon Berkson said his crimes were "a parent's worst nightmare" and showed "clear grooming of young girls".

In his 2014 book, Mecca: The Sacred City, historian Ziauddin Sardar notes that during the second half of the 18th Century, the city had acquired a distinctively Indian character with its economy and financial well-being dependent on Indian Muslims."Almost 20% of the city's inhabitants, the largest single majority, were now of Indian origins – people from Gujarat, Punjab, Kashmir and Deccan, all collectively known locally as the Hindis," Sardar wrote.

As Saudi Arabia's oil wealth surged in the 20th century, sweeping development projects reshaped Mecca. Keyi Rubath was demolished three times, the final time in the early 1970s.That's when the confusion around compensation appears to have started.According to BM Jamal, former secretary of India's Central Waqf Council, the Indian consulate in Jeddah wrote to the government back then, seeking details of Mayankutty Keyi's legal heir.

"In my understanding, authorities were looking for the descendants to appoint a manager for the property, not to distribute the compensation money," Mr Jamal said.Nonetheless, two factions stepped forward: the Keyis - Mayankutty's paternal family - and the Arakkals, a royal family from Kerala into which he had married.

Both families traditionally followed a matrilineal inheritance system - a custom not recognized under Saudi law, adding further complexity.

The Keyis claim that Mayankutty died childless, making his sister's children his rightful heirs under matrilineal tradition.Some of these changes will be voted on by MPs next Friday - and a final Commons vote will take place in the summer, before it heads to the House of Lords for further scrutiny.

Markus Campbell-Savours, the Labour MP for Penrith and Solway, is one of those who has said he's now likely to vote against the bill after previously supporting it.He said he still considers himself "a supporter of assisted dying" but believes the current bill crosses "red lines for protecting the vulnerable".

"I want to see safeguards that will ensure that assisted dying is not overextended to include those in situations where there are alternative ways to improve the quality of their lives," said Campbell-Savours."I would also be very concerned if legislation produced a situation where people who considered themselves a burden on their families and friends felt pressured to end their life."
