Quote: According to three separate testimonies obtained by the organization, the activists were repeatedly tortured by electrocution and flogging, leaving some unable to walk or stand properly. In one reported instance, one of the activists was made to hang from the ceiling, and according to another testimony, one of the detained women was reportedly subjected to sexual harassment, by interrogators wearing face masks.
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

Saudi Arabia is a big prison. I am asking you through this forum: don't take this criminal regime as your ally; or think they will do good to you on the long run.
They are torturing their people to shut up, and they will stab the western countries that support them in the back when they get the chance; just like they did to Canada.
Trump's cards are as filthy as his own self. The Sauds are one of his card.
