End of the Sentence of the Jordanian Detainee Jamal Khaled Omar

Despite the expiration of the sentence of the Jordanian detainee, Engineer Jamal Khaled Omar, more than a year ago, the Saudi authorities have not yet released him.

It is worth noting that Jamal Omar is a computer engineer, born in 1967. He was arrested in Jeddah in April 2019 for supporting the resistance in Palestine and was sentenced to 3 years in prison along with deportation.However, even after more than a year since the end of his sentence, he remains under arbitrary detention in Saudi Arabia.

SANAD Organisation for Human Rights calls on the Saudi authorities for his immediate release without any conditions, as this is contrary to Saudi law which stipulates the necessity of releasing anyone who has served their sentence, in addition to the illegality of his arrest.
