Saudi Arabian Justice Ministry Says It Will Sue Over “ISIS” Comparison
From Reuters: Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Justice says it will sue an unnamed Tweeter who said that the recent death sentence meted out to Ashraf Fayadh, a noted Palestinian poet, was comparable to those committed by ISIS. Saudi Arabia’s justice ministry fired back, saying that Mr. Fayadh’s death sentence was given out because he has renounced Islam, and that to question the fairness of Saudi Arabian courts is essentially putting into question the fairness of the kingdom’s Islamic-based justice system.
