A student of Saudi Arabia at the University of Lida was released from a prison in Saudi Arabia after the action was reduced, activists said.
Salm al-Shahab, a 36-year-old mother of two, was arrested in 2021, being on vacation in the Kingdom of Persian Gulf.
Later, she was imprisoned for a tribunal of terrorism for six years over the “disturbing public order” and “destabilization of social fabric” about reports calling for reforms and activists.
The verdict increased to 34 years before the appeal twice decreased – first to 27 years, and then up to four years, and the additional four years deviated. There was no immediate confirmation of the Saudi Arabian authorities.
The release of Shehab first reported Alqst, the British Saudi Law Group, which stated that it was subjected to “four years of arbitrary imprisonment based on its peaceful activity.”
“Now its full freedom must be granted, including the right to travel to graduate from Lids University,” he added.
Crown Prince Mohammed Ben Salman, Actual Head of Saudi Arabia, Over the last eight years, he has supervised the broad repression over the past eight years, and peace critics in social media have made long prison terms or even the death penalty after lawsuits on the tribunal that are engaged in rights engaged in rights engaged in rights. Say unjust.
Shehab, dental hygienist and medical teacher, who was the last year of study at the Lids University Medical School, posted or redirected several reports that called for reforms and release famous activists, clerics and other intellectuals before she traveled the kingdom five years ago.
One post was highly appreciated by “prisoners of conscience”, a group of leading human rights defenders who were detained just before the ban on women management in 2018 and later convicted of crimes against the state.
A researcher in the Middle East Amnesty International, Dana Ahmed, said Shakhab was convicted of terrorism allegations “just because she wrote in support of women’s rights and resetting Saudi’s human rights defenders.”
“Although today is a day to celebrate the release of Salma, it is also an opportunity to reflect on many others who are serving similarly long proposals in Saudi Arabia for their activities,” she added.
“These include other women, such as the al-Atabi and Nura al-Ktani monk, put in jail for women’s rights, and Abdulrahman al-Sadhan, imprisoned for 20 years for satirical tweets.”
The BBC has contacted the Saudi Arabian Foreign Ministry and at the University of Lida.
