The Island of Inspiration and Message Appeals all the Conscientious Persons for Help

 

The processes of arrests , pressure and pursuit against Saudi citizens still the effective policy by the Saudi repressive staff till our country becomes as a big jail for all people where they feel frightened because the arrests are carried out arbitrarily and in a detective way without clear justifications or regard to the Islamic and international mores and laws because our country is not ruled by constitution or permanent legitimate and official laws except royal decrees and personal temper  .

 

   In this regard, the members of al-Mabahith al-`Amma (General Investigations) have raided the job location of  the citizen Abdul Majid Hussein al-Naser, aged 36 , an employer at domestic establishment in Dammam city . He was arrested immediately and led forcibly to his house which was thoroughly inspected with immoral way , and then he was deported to the prison of al-Mabahith al-`Amma in Dammam in order to transfer him to al-Ha'ir prison in Riyadh .His family has not been notified with the reasons of his arrest .

 

   It is worth mentioning that al-Naser has no political activities and didn't join with any religious activity before his arrest . Al-Naser was previously arrested by al-Mabahith al-`Amma in August 1996 within the framework of oppressive campaigns which had been launched by the Regime.

 

   It is worth to point out and draw the attention of every awakened conscience all over the world that there are hundreds of religious and citizens still suffer in the prisons of al-Ha'ir , al-Qasim, al-Dammam and other jails through the country for many years. They have waited the unknown fate suffering all kinds of torture and denied the right of fair trial and the opportunity to defend themselves directly or by lawyers and they have not been informed the reasons behind their arrest.

 

    We call upon you to raise your voices to join with these detainees and to put an end to this farce which is played by the Interior Ministry under the slogan of (Keeping the security and stability of the country).
