Mohammed al-Ghamdi, a retired teacher, was sentenced to death over tweets from an anonymous account with nine followers, says his UK-based brother
Tweets made from anonymous account with nine followers, focused on unemployment, inflation, mismanagement of resources, release of political prisoners.
Haha. In a case like this, in Saudi Arabia, legal costs are basically just a way to give money to Saudi lawyers so they can pretend to be busy. Also, Musk probably doesn’t want to draw attention to the fact that the Saudi government is the co-owner of X/Twitter.
Elon promised that he’d cover the legal costs to fight this right?
