The "Prisoners of Conscience" account on Twitter stated that the Saudi authorities are preparing for the trial sessions of 14 detainees, Palestinian and Jordanian residents, who are currently in Dhahban prison, within the next few days.
The source added that among the charges that the prosecution will face them during the trial, "their support for the Palestinian resistance and the pursuit of charitable work."
On the other hand, the Arab Organization for Human Rights in Britain condemned the decision of the Saudi authorities to refer 21 Jordanian and Palestinian detainees to the competent criminal court after a year of unlawful detention.
The organization said in a statement that the detainees were subjected to enforced disappearance and were not allowed to hire lawyers to defend them.
The statement also called on the Jordanian government to pressure its Saudi counterpart to release the detainees.
In September 2017, Saudi authorities arrested prominent preachers and activists, most notably Salman al-Awda, Awad al-Qarni, and Ali al-Omari, amid calls by international and Islamic figures and organizations that they should be released. Recently, there were reports of the authorities ’intention to issue and implement death sentences for the three preachers.
