Manahel al-Otaibi and Abdulrahman al-Sadhan are marking yet another birthday behind bars in SaudiArabia not for any crime, but for peacefully exercising their right to free expression. Their continued detention is a blatant abuse of human rights.

Al-Qaradawi’s extradition and enforced disappearance highlight an alarming trend of transnational repression, as governments target exiled writers and human rights defenders often with the complicity of third-party states. #FreeAbdulRahman pen.org/press-releas...
Egyptian-Turkish Poet and a Voice of the Arab Spring Unlawfully Extradited to United Arab Emirates - PEN America

Why do you think Trump likes #SaudiArabia? Prison.

That’s why he allows #GEOGroup #ProudBoys #Oathkeepers #J6ers #FormerPoliceOfficers to take away our rights: speak up.

We all (the whole world) must work in this TOGETHER to destroy prisons.

#FreeManahel & #FreeAbdulrahman & #FreePrisoners
#Manahel al-Otaibi and #Abdulrahman al-Sadhan are spending another birthday in prison in #SaudiArabia simply for exercising their right to freedom of expression. Saudi authorities must release them immediately and release all those wrongfully detained for exercising their freedom of expression.
