Saudi Arabia sentences a man to 10 years in jail and 2,000 lashes for tweeting that he was an atheist
The hardline Islamic state has a law defining atheist beliefs as ‘terrorism’
A COURT in Saudi Arabia has sentenced a man to ten years in prison and 2,000 lashes for expressing his atheism on Twitter.
The 28-year-old reportedly refused to repent, insisting what he wrote reflected his beliefs and that he had the right to express them.
The hardline Islamic state’s religious police in charge of monitoring social networks found more than 600 tweets denying the existence of God, ridiculing Koranic verses, accusing all prophets of lies and saying their teaching fuelled hostilities.
The court also fined him around £4,000.
He was sentenced under a controversial law that defines atheism as “terrorism”.
Don’t move, this won’t hurt (me) one bit……..
