Saudi Arabia accused of torturing female activists by electrocution and flogging

Human Rights Watch reported that "Female Saudi activists reported being tortured, from getting flogged to being sexually assaulted by the Saudi regime in prisons":
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world...44426.html
Quote:Campaigners have accused Saudi Arabia of subjecting several activists, including female human rights defenders, imprisoned since May to torture and sexual harassment.
More than a dozen women’s rights activists have been detained for months, most of whom had campaigned for the right to drive and an end to the Kingdom’s male guardianship system, but some have since been freed.
It looks like it even increased a lot after the assassination of Jamal Kashoggi:
Quote:Lynn Maalouf, Amnesty International’s Middle East research director, said: “Only a few weeks after the ruthless killing of Jamal Khashoggi, these shocking reports of torture, sexual harassment and other forms of ill treatment, if verified, expose further outrageous human rights violations by the Saudi authorities.”
These allegations are as true as the daylight. We've been repeating for decades that the government of Saudi Arabia is torturing opposing voices and do atrocities to any person dares speaking against the royal family of the Sauds but so many outside the kingdom chose to believe the Sauds instead; until the case of Kashoggi came and exposed how full of lies this regime is and how savage and brutal it is.
Quote:The allegations could not be verified and the campaigners did not clarify the identity of the individuals who provided testimony. Human Rights Watch said the sources were concerned they and the activists would suffer reprisals if identified publicly.
So really? "could not be verified"? even after knowing about Kashoggi being hacked to pieces, melted in acid; inside a consulate belonging to this savage regime, by orders from it's own king's son; proved by Turkey and the CIA ?
Quote:A Saudi government communications office did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Riyadh has in the past denied using torture and said that arrests were made on the basis of people accused of having suspicious contacts with foreign entities and of offering financial support to “enemies overseas”.
So by participating in "athiestforum.org" I should be arrested according to the regime of Saudi Arabia.

I wonder what Trump will think when his wife or daughter live under the democratic rule of MBS and his family.
First, Ivanka will have to wear Niqab. She'll look awesome in it.
(A real picture of Melania Trump whispering a word to Ivanka under the rule of MBS).

Treasuring your worries; Brian.
Thousands are also posting. I hope this will form a fist enough to shake their injustice for good.

Believe it or not, feminists in Saudi Arabia love MBS. He gave women the right to drive; anyways. A right that they ironically had all along. They love a tyrant for returning to them what he and his family stole. A right that was theirs
Accept my apology, Minimalist, it's Ivanka whispering to Melania.
Ivanka is the one on the left..
wait, right.
