UAE Critic Remains in Detention One Year On
Original: United Arab Emirates: A Year On, Critic Remains in Detention
Human Rights Watch reports that a critic of the United Arab Emirates government has now spent a full year in detention without release. The organization is calling attention to the case, arguing the prolonged imprisonment of a government critic raises serious free-expression concerns. Rights groups are urging Emirati authorities to release the detainee and account for the legal basis of his continued detention.
Why now: The one-year anniversary of the detention has prompted renewed attention and calls for the critic's release.
