Your Excellency I am writing to express my serious concern about the fate of 14 Saudi Arabian men who are at risk of imminent execution in Saudi Arabia after their death sentences were upheld by the Supreme Court. Hussein al-Rabi’, Abdullah al-Tureif, Hussein al-Mosallem, Mohamed al-Naser, Mustafa al-Darwish, Fadel Labbad, Sa’id al-Sakafi, Salman al-Qureish, Mujtaba al-Suweyket, Munir al-Adam, Abdullah al-Asreeh, Ahmad al-Darwish, Abdulaziz al-Sahwi, and Ahmad al-Rab’i were sentenced to death on 1 June 2016 by the Specialized Criminal Court (SCC) in Riyadh, following a grossly unfair mass trial of 24 people based on “confessions” they told the court were obtained under torture. They were found guilty of violent offences related to their alleged participation in anti-government demonstrations in the country’s Shi’a majority Eastern Province between 2011 and 2012. The families of the 14 men learned on 23 July that the sentences of their relatives have been upheld by the Supreme Court, meaning they have exhausted all of their appeals and could be executed as soon as His Majesty King Salman ratifies their sentences. Given grave concerns about the fairness of the trial, we urge your government to immediately halt these executions and quash the convictions, and ensure these men and all other people on death row after unfair trials are retried in proceedings meeting international fair trial standards and without recourse to the death penalty. We further urge your government to order a prompt, impartial, independent and effective investigation into their allegations of torture and other ill-treatment, and to immediately establish an official moratorium on executions with a view to abolishing the death penalty in Saudi Arabia. Yours sincerely
