UAE Three women held in secret detention over tweets | Amnesty International: “The authorities must recognize that attempts to silence critics and crush freedom of expression by resorting to deeply repressive tactics will backfire. They cannot arbitrarily lock up activists or their families indefinitely without charge, on a whim. The women must be immediately and unconditionally released, like all others detained solely for peaceful expression.”
The three women, Asma Khalifa al-Suwaidi, Mariam Khalifa al-Suwaidi and Alyaziyah Khalifa al-Suwaidi, had been peacefully campaigning online for their brother Dr Issa al-Suwaidi. He is one of 69 people convicted after the 2013 unfair mass trial of 94 government critics and reformists, widely known as the “UAE 94” trial.
