Saudi arrested, tortured over 150 Palestinians over charitable activities: Rights group
Tehran (KNA) - An independent human rights group says Saudi authorities have arrested and tortured scores of Palestinian expatriates living in the conservative kingdom over their involvement in charitable activities and sending money back home.
Prisoners of Conscience, which is an independent non-governmental organization seeking to promote human rights in Saudi Arabia, announced in a series of posts on its official Twitter page on Tuesday evening that more than 150 Palestinians are currently languishing in Saudi detention centers. Some 40 Palestinians were arrested in the Red Sea port city of Jeddah alone.
The rights group added that Saudi intelligence agents have committed rights abuses against Palestinians during and after their arrest.
