Free Ashraf, poet facing execution in Saudi Arabia (Amnesty petition)

https://www.amnesty.org.uk/


Ashraf is a 35-year-old Palestinian poet and artist born and living in Saudi Arabia. He has been sentenced to death for 'apostasy'.

The Saudi Arabian authorities claim that his poetry has questioned religion and spread atheism.

But Ashraf has committed no crime.

Ask the Saudi Arabian authorities to free him now.
