The European Saudi Organisation for Human Rights (ESOHR) (
Aims and origin
The European Saudi Organisation for Human Rights has published reports on human rights violations in Saudi Arabia since 2013.
Reports
ESOHR's activities over 2013–2018 include translating and commenting on the Saudi Arabian Ministry of Interior January 2012 list of 23 Eastern Province youths that the ministry wished to arrest because of dissident activities,[1] describing the Saudi government's actions in the Eastern Province in 2017 as "a war ... unlike anything seen in [Saudi Arabia's] 80-year history", and warning against Israa al-Ghomgham's August 2018 death sentence as a "dangerous precedent" that could lead to executions of other Saudi political activists.[5]
In 2019, ESOHR provided a detailed report about the 2019 Saudi Arabia mass execution, giving details of enquiries to Saudi authorities about the executees' cases by United Nations special rapporteurs and other United Nations representatives.[7]
