solosnake 06/07/19 4:47:29 AM #2:	Foot on pedal, 10-year-old Murtaja Qureiris is about to lead the group of around 30 children. In video footage obtained by CNN, he is wearing rolled up denim jeans and black flip-flops on his feet, and grinning at the camera recording the event. It may look like a regular bike ride, but the group is staging a protest. Moments after they set off, Qureiris gets lost in the sea of boys, struggling to keep up as he lifts a megaphone and presses it against his lips. The people demand human rights! he shouts. As a boy, Qureiris participated in demonstrations like this bike ride, expressions of dissent in Saudi Arabias Eastern Province during the 2011 Arab Spring. Three years after he was filmed taking part in the bike protest, Saudi authorities arrested Qureiris, then just 13 years old. He was traveling with his family to Bahrain when he was detained by Saudi border authorities on the King Fahd causeway that connects the two countries. At the time, he was considered by lawyers and activists to be the youngest known political prisoner in Saudi Arabia. --- "We would have no NBA possibly if they got rid of all the flopping." ~ Dwyane Wade https://imgur.com/MYYEIx5 https://imgur.com/WGE12ef <cite>solosnake posted [p:922909318] in He was arr...

solosnake 06/07/19 4:51:40 AM #3:	Though the prosecution has not held Qureiris responsible for any loss of life, CNN has learned that it is seeking to impose the harshest form of the death penalty, which may include crucifixion or dismemberment after execution. Prosecutors argued that his sowing of sedition warranted the worst possible punishment, according to the kingdoms strict interpretation of Islamic Sharia law. A charge sheet recommending the death penalty was presented to Qureiris just months before his 18th birthday. Another of his brothers has also been jailed, and his father was detained last year, according to activists. At least one year and three months of Qureiris detention has been spent in solitary confinement, CNN has learned. --- "We would have no NBA possibly if they got rid of all the flopping." ~ Dwyane Wade https://imgur.com/MYYEIx5 https://imgur.com/WGE12ef <cite>solosnake posted [p:922909381] in He was arr...

solosnake 06/07/19 4:56:30 AM #4:	Most of the demonstrators are masked. Murtaja and his father are barefaced, something that may have made it easier for the family to become ensnared in the governments crackdown on activists. Murtaja (Qureiris) was one of the only people who didnt wear masks during the protests, recalled activist Mohammad Daman. And he was always with his dad (Abdullah). In the footage, Abdullah is dressed in a brown thobe normally reserved for the elders of an Arab tribe, and speaking into a megaphone while another protester holds a Quran over his head. We pledge to the martyrs that we will continue our marches, says Abdullah Qureiris. Standing next to him is Murtaja Qureiris with a ski mask on his head, having apparently removed it from his face. He glances at the camera, smiles, and walks away, unaware of what was to face him in the future. --- "We would have no NBA possibly if they got rid of all the flopping." ~ Dwyane Wade https://imgur.com/MYYEIx5 https://imgur.com/WGE12ef <cite>solosnake posted [p:922909453] in He was arr...
