Formally request that Saudi Arabia does not execute Ali Mohammed al-Nimr.
Ali Mohammed Baqir al-Nimr could be beheaded at any time. He's accused of a variety of crimes against the state, all stemming from protests he took part in aged 17. His crime is to be a political dissident. We have a relationship with Saudi Arabia and we should use it.
The UN has issued an urgent call for Saudi Arabia to halt the execution of a young man who faces imminent beheading and crucifixion for crimes he reportedly committed as a child.
The young man’s case has been the subject of fervent campaigning from rights groups including Amnesty International and Reprieve, who say he was tortured and forced to sign a false confession before being sentenced to “death by crucifixion”.
