Saudi Arabia Sentences a Man to Ten Years Imprisonment and 2,000 Lashes for Being an Atheist

“A court in Saudi Arabia has sentenced a man to ten years in prison and 2,000 lashes for expressing his atheism on Twitter,” Felix Allen of the Sun reports. “The 28-year-old reportedly refused to repent, insisting what he wrote reflected his beliefs and that he had the right to express them.”

A despicable violation of human rights!
