Saudi Arabia escalates targeting Shia minority

Shia Rights Watch world organization voiced full support with Shia minority in Saudi Arabia, denouncing Sheikh Nimr’s death penalty.

In a recently released statement, SRW said that the sentence handed down to the cleric was based on clear political motivations, describing the sentence as a violation to all rights and humanitarian rules as it represents one of the acts of the tyrant Saudi regime.

The organization added that aim of the Saudi regime, through this ruling, is to send a message to all rights and humanitarian activists whom oppose its policy by making Sheikh Nimr as its victim for its oppressive intentions.
