A Saudi man walks past women in a crafts tent at a fair in Riyadh. Women face a host of strictures.

Her father and brothers wanted her to marry a cousin who was younger and much less educated than she is.

They beat her when she refused, causing her to flee to a battered women shelter five years ago, where she has remained.

Her father allowed her to keep the salary she earned as a surgeon.

Dozens of women like her are now bringing charges against abusive guardians.
