DUBAI (Reuters) - The sisters of prominent Saudi women's rights activist Loujain al-Hathloul said on Thursday they wanted real justice for her, the day after she was released from prison.

Hathloul, 31, has campaigned for women's right to drive and to end Saudi's male guardianship system. She spent nearly three years behind bars in a case that drew international condemnation, and remains forbidden to leave Saudi Arabia for the next five years.
