There is always another side of the story

"Iskander Yusof, 21, Sufiah's brother, said, however, that there were mixed emotions over the revelations about Sufiah, 10 years after she was admitted to St Hilda's College, Oxford, to study mathematics. Speaking of the effect on their mother, he said: "Of course, she was shocked and upset to hear the news, but I think, because she had been out of contact with Sufiah for such a long time, she was actually pleased in a way to hear something of her daughter. But in terms of what she was actually doing, she wasn't best pleased." Yusof, a computer programmer who graduated from Warwick University aged 15, sympathises with the pressures his sister was under. "While my mother never really made an issue of the fact that we were prodigies, other people did. The pressure was entirely external," he told BBC Radio 4's Today programme yesterday. He hopes his sister will resolve her inner demons. "Sometimes when dealing with problems you don't need to speak to other people. You just need to look inward and say, 'What sort of person do I want to become? What sort of person am I?' "
"Mr Marshall, (her ex-husband) who converted to Islam to marry Sufiah, said of his former wife's new profession: "I am completely shocked. It's very sad, actually. It's very shocking that someone can use themselves in such a way. Speaking from Saudi Arabia, where he lives and works, he added: "It's a particular shock - her coming from a Muslim background. People can blame childhood to a certain extent, but there also comes a point where you have to take responsibility for your own actions."
