🚨Saudi activist @alkhabd21, who has campaigned for democratic reforms in Saudi Arabia, is 'hours or days' way from a deportation, his lawyers tell me

Last month, a Sofia court ordered his release.

What happened?

Lebanon has made no tangible progress in halting torture by security officials 5 years after passing an anti-torture law, 9 organizations, including @HRW @Legal_Agenda & @MENA_Rights, said today on the International Day in Support of Victims of Torture.

#InternationalDayAgainstTorture

The detention of refugees at the Police Hospital involves painful methods of shackling their hands and feet, with their hands tied behind their backs under the bed and their feet secured with thick straps.

[Abdulrahman Al-Khalidi @alkhabd21]

More than 18 months in administrative detention, without charges or convictions, under the brutality of the security systems and the disregard of the UN.

Far from me, my son is struggling to preserve his sight, and I am fighting for both of them.

🚨URGENT🚨

As minors, they protested discrimination in #SaudiArabia. Now, they face execution.

📢With @ESOHumanRightsE, we urge the UN Working Group on Arbitrary Detention to recognise the arbitrariness of their detention & to advocate for their release!

Last month, ALQST, @MENA_Rights and @rightlivelihood held a webinar discussing #Saudi HRD Dr. Mohammed al-Qahtani and his colleagues from the disbanded Saudi Civil and Political Rights Association (ACPRA).

Dissident Abdulrahman AlKhalidi @alkhabd21 risks deportation from Bulgaria to #SaudiArabia, where he faces torture & ill-treatment.

With @ESOHumanRightsE @ALQST_En, we urge @DrAliceJEdwards to intervene with authorities to ensure his safety⬇���

The merger of LIV Golf and PGA "has been met with a chorus of criticism & accusations of hypocrisy", writes @Ray_Uddin.

Sportswashing shows "there is absolutely no hesitation to cast human rights aside for profit," says our Human Rights Officer @fal_syd.

I've received disturbing news that the trial on new charges of Saudi HRD Mohammad Al-Qahtani has been adjourned twice due to his absence & that his family & lawyer have no information about him. His 10-year jail term ended 6 months ago. He should be released.

[Maha AlQahtani @Maha1410]

Today’s trial session of my husband was postponed in #SaudiArabia, which confirms his forcible disappearance since October 24th
We do not know what the charges are, nor why he did not attend court.
He must be allowed to contact us and the sham trial put to an end !#FreeAlQahtani

[ACAT-France @ACAT_France]

#Peinedemort #ArabieSaoudite 🇸🇦 | 9 personnes, toutes mineures au moment des faits, risquent d'être exécutées prochainement.

Précédée de tortures et de discriminations, leur condamnation viole le droit international.

Nous portons la voix de l'abolition.

Turkish border guards are indiscriminately shooting at Syrian civilians on the border with Syria, as well as torturing and using excessive force against asylum seekers and migrants trying to cross into Turkey. Eight were just viciously beaten. Two died. https://t.co/C2xFF5uHED

[Jewish Voice for Peace @jvplive]

What freedom, and at whose expense?
What the Israeli government is “celebrating” today is 75 years of ongoing dispossession, oppression, and ethnic cleansing of Palestinians. These are the requirements for maintaining apartheid and they’re nothing to celebrate.

اليوم كان مليئاً بمشاعر الحزن والألم والقهر فهو يصادف ذكرى وفاة الوالد #عبدالله_الحامد
ومرور ستة أشهر على اخفاء زوجي #محمد_فهد_القحطاني
اللهم إنا نسألك الصبر والثبات على الحق.
أين زوجي ؟!

📢Join our webinar tomorrow!

#Saudi authorities continue to hold members of @acprahr in prison for their activism, despite having completed their sentences.

We call on them to release these individuals immediately.
