SANA'A, May. 14 (Saba) - Insan Rights and Freedoms Organization condemned on Saturday in the strongest terms the recent execution by the Saudi authorities of Yemeni citizen Mohammed Abdul Basit Mohammed al-Moalimi and a group of Saudi dissidents, including Hussein Ali al-Bou Abdallah and Mohammed Khadhr al-Awami.
In a statement received by SABA, the organization explained that preliminary information from the victim's family indicated that their 21-year-old son, Mohammed, had travelled in 2014 and remained in contact with them, but that three months earlier he had disappeared and only learned of his death from the Saudi media.
The statement noted that this crime is a continuation of a series of human rights violations committed by the Saudi authorities in contravention of all international covenants, norms and human rights laws.
Two Yemeni prisoners were electrocuted until they died days earlier, and 81 prisoners, including seven Yemenis, were executed two months earlier in Saudi prisons.
The organization called on all United Nations bodies and international human rights bodies and organizations to conduct extensive investigations into and end the violations of the Saudi authorities and to act in accordance with international laws and instruments to punish the perpetrators.
