Despite being told that he'd soon be released, Abdulrahman al-Sadhan was brought to trial in March 2021, facing trumped-up charges for peaceful satire on X.
Following a grossly unfair trial, he was sentenced to 20 years in prison.

Today is the 31st birthday of Manahel al-Otaibi, and the 42nd birthday of Abdulrahman al-Sadhan.
Both are spending their birthdays behind bars simply for exercising their right to freedom of expression.
Authorities in Saudi Arabia must #FreeManahel and #FreeSadhan.

joined us in action for Saudi #HumanRights Defenders: Salma - now freed but with suspended sentence and travel ban. Nourah - sentence reduced but ill in solitary confinement. Sadhan - 'disappeared,' presumed still in jail. #FreeNourah #FreeSadhan
This month marks 7 years since Abdulrahman al-Sadhan was arrested, tortured & forcibly disappeared in #SaudiArabia over satirical tweets.
It's been 7 years since his American family has hugged him.
It's time for Saudi authorities to end this nightmare. It's time to #FreeSadhan.
“The more authoritarians can get away with human rights abuse, the more they are emboldened, & that means they can reach across borders.”
