 "Mohammad al-Qahtani and Abdullah al-Hamid are guilty of nothing more
than daring to speak out on Saudi Arabia’s dire human rights record. The
reality is that the human rights situation in Saudi Arabia is abysmal
and anyone who risks highlighting flaws in the system is branded a
criminal and tossed in a jail cell,” said Said Boumedouha, Amnesty
International’s Deputy Director for the Middle East and North Africa
