Saudi Arabia: Abusive Charges Against Women Activists | Human Rights Watch

Saudi Arabia: Abusive Charges Against Women Activists | Human Rights Watch

 

 

Stand with Saudi feminists who have been arrested for promoting women's rights!!

Loujain al-Hathloul Aziza Yousef, Hatoon al-Fassi, and at least 8 other woman human rights defenders in Saudi Arabia have been arrested and accused of being foreign agents.


"Saudi Arabia’s charges against women’s rights defenders appear almost
entirely related to their human rights activities, Human Rights Watch
said today. Saudi Arabia opened individual trials on March 13, 2019 of
11 activists, most of them prominent women’s rights advocates detained
beginning in May 2018. Saudi Arabia should immediately release all human
rights activists detained merely for their rights advocacy, Human
Rights Watch said."
