In Saudi Arabia, a man has been sentenced to 20 years in prison for charges related to his social media activity. Asaad al-Ghamdi, a 47-year-old teacher, was arrested in November and convicted of publishing false information and “challenging the religion and justice of the King and the Crown Prince.” He was held incommunicado and placed in solitary confinement in a Jeddah prison. He has also been denied medical attention for his epilepsy, suffering multiple seizures while in custody, according to Human Rights Watch. One of his brothers was sentenced to death last year over his tweets, some of which called for the release of political prisoners.
