Saudi Arabia prepares prosecution of women's rights activists - feminists silent
Article here. You have to see this on an MRA web site but won't on any feminist ones. Why is that, I wonder? Could it be political correctness run amok? I think so. Heaven forfend women be allowed to drive or go out alone in public, right? Excerpt:
'Saudi Arabia's public prosecutor is preparing the trials of detainees, identified by watchdog groups as women's rights activists, after completing its investigations, state news agency SPA said on Friday.
The report provided few details but referenced a June 2018 statement which said that nine people - five men and four women - were arrested and held on suspicion of harming the country's interests and offering support to hostile elements abroad.
At the time, international rights groups reported the detention of at least 11 prominent activists, mostly women who previously campaigned for the right to drive and an end to the kingdom's male guardianship system.'
