Saudi Arabia has sentenced to death a government critic who denounced alleged corruption and human rights abuses on social media, his brother and others familiar with the case told AFP on Monday.
The judgement was handed down against Mohammed al-Ghamdi in July by the Specialized Criminal Court, a secretive institution established in 2008 to try terrorism cases that has a history of unfair trials resulting in death sentences.
The charges against al-Ghamdi include conspiracy against the Saudi leadership, undermining state institutions and supporting terrorist ideology, sources briefed on the details of the case told AFP.
Hey remember all those times the US government did business with Saudi Arabia? I wish I could come up with something to say about that that wouldn’t get me visited by at least 9 letters worth of government agencies
Lol what? Yeah, no. That’s silly.
What’s silly is that we keep voting for people who keep selling weapons to terrorists
Ok. Still not going to be visited by several alphabet agencies for criticizing Saudi Arabia on the internet LOL
Why did ?
As European, I’m laughing or crying, depend, to see we have turned Putin to this…
