Saudi Court Upholds Blogger's 10 Years And 1,000 Lashes Sentence! by RobinHez(m): 4:39pm On Jun 07, 2015 |
Saudi Arabia's Supreme Court has upheld the sentence of 1,000 lashes and 10 years of imprisonment on blogger Raif Badawi, despite a foreign outcry. Raif Badawi's family have warned he could die if the 1,000 lashes are carried out. Badawi received his first 50 lashes in January, but subsequent floggings have been postponed. A shaky video taken on a mobile phone showed Badawi being lashed by a member of the security forces. The footage prompted international protests which were repeated every Friday, the scheduled day for the beatings. It is not clear why Badawi has not yet endured a second round though a medical report found he was not fit for the punishment. Saudi Arabia enforces a strict version of Islamic law and does not tolerate political dissent. It has some of the highest social media usage rates in the region, and has cracked down on domestic online criticism. Source:http://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-33039815 |
