So where between these 2 poles does the truth lie aljazeera examines the state of womens activism in saudi arabia hearing from female Detainees InternationalHuman Rights Organizations and seeking responses from those at the center of Decision Making within saudi arabia. This is a story that begins with a series of arrests. Of saudi women. Starting in september 27th when an academic. Was arrested after talking about corruption in one of her lectures. Then in january 28th a student in womens Rights Campaigner. Was arrested after criticizing the Foreign Relations between saudi arabia and israel. Then in may 28th there was a wave of arrests including 12 prominent womens Rights Campaign is. The eldest was a 70 year old doctor. A veteran campaigner for the right to drive others included hasa. And mahdi. Who oppose the countrys conservative guardianship system. Others included lou shine ill have new a man i love john. Uses and why. Are all campaigners against the guardianship system. Their arrests were widely reported in saudi arabia where local media described the women asked traitors and agents of embassies. At the head you know crime can actually. Lead to any welcome. When tomorrow but a. Well. Sad note that he had been anything but so mayor badawi is standing up against 2 of the most significant challenges facing women. In saudi arabia some are has translated her personal efforts into broader campaigns encouraging more women to speak out for their rights you are making a difference and we thank you for that. Some of those. Men and shot. A form without unhopeful consensus or do you want to follow your. Own a few you not for a nobody its none of your must. Come with a great tone or bad muffy to hum a pleasure had the. Long walk theres ezine bishop and a few. The case is. An example of many many other similar cases in saudi arabia with persons or detained with are to be lawful places for a prolonged period of time very often and subjected to very harsh inhumane conditions. Are thought to be helpful. And who are the target of them its the month of america. To hold. Someone but there we have to again at hamlet and let at the flat they mean they had you dont know what for. A while there was a one when. You have 3 that someone but there we. Sit in the one where bucky had to knock or to add whether to hear whether jane how the law is any use if should then and izzy were a man in this fan.

People have seen the indictment and the charge sheet against the women and the only charges against them relate to their talking to foreign media and foreign organizations like Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International there is no evidence no allegation of evidence that they talk to any foreign intelligence and it would just be ludicrous because even if they did talk to foreign intelligence what they talked about is Public Knowledge and that is the conditions of women in saudi arabia.
