Representatives of the families of arbitrarily detained Qatari nationals and victims of enforced disappearance in Saudi Arabia will present live testimonies of the sufferings of the victims before the European Parliament, UN Human Rights Council and other relevant international bodies soon, Chairman of the National Human Rights Committee (NHRC) HE Dr Ali bin Smaikh al Marri has said.
Marri said the NHRC will submit comprehensive and well-documented files to the UN Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination (CERD) and the UN Working Groups on Arbitrary Detention and Enforced and Involuntary Disappearances on the continuation of the Saudi violations that have affected a few Qatari citizens who were allowed to enter Saudi Arabia with security clearances before being arbitrarily detained. He pointed out that the UN Working Groups sent an official letter to Saudi Arabia over its continued arbitrary arrests and enforced disappearance of Qatari citizens.
Dr Marri said this after a meeting with the Working Group on Enforced or Involuntary Disappearances and the Working Group on Arbitrary Detention during his ongoing visit to Geneva.
During the meeting, Dr Marri gave a briefing on the latest developments in the Qatar blockade.
