Posted on 27th Apr 2020 10:50 am by rohit kumar

Riyadh. The punishment for whipping is now banned in Saudi Arabia. The Supreme Court had commented on the method of punishment. Now the punishment for whipping has been changed to jail or fine. According to the BBC report, Saudi Arabia has the highest number of human rights abuses in the world. The directive issued on Friday is seen as a step taken by King Salman and his son Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman to expand human rights reforms.

 

Saudi Arabia is an ally of America and this is where Islam started. Wahhabi Sunni Muslim rules are strictly followed in Saudi. The clerics have control over the law and order here.

 

The last case of whip punishment came in 2015

The last case of Koda's sentence was revealed in 2015 in Saudi Arabia. Here a blogger, Raif Badawi, was sentenced to flog in front of the public. In fact, Badawi was accused of insulting Islam, cybercrime on his website "Saudi Liberal Network". In June 2012, Badawi was arrested. He was sentenced to 10 years imprisonment and a thousand whips. Badawi's sentence was condemned by human rights organizations in the US and around the world.

 

Human rights worker died

A human rights activist died of a stroke in a Saudi Arabian prison on Friday. His fellow workers said that he was ill and that the authorities did not provide any treatment.

 

Crown Prince has adopted many liberal policies

Crown Prince Laman has adopted several liberal policies in Saudi Arabia. In 2018, she allowed women in the country to drive cars. It was described as the historical moment of Saudi. Many of his efforts have been appreciated, but he has also faced criticism for human rights violations. Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashogi has been charged with serious charges after his murder. Khashogi was assassinated at the Saudi Embassy in Turkey in 2019.
