![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Saudi controls on information and its harsh suppression of freedom of expression and association prevented any human rights organizations from operating in Saudi Arabia. Government monitoring of telephone and mail communications made Saudis reluctant to comment on human rights conditions there, and even those who lived abroad often requested anonymity when providing human rights information, so as to avoid reprisals against themselves or their families. No international human rights organization has received authorization to conduct a mission to Saudi Arabia for several years. Foreign journalists needing visas to enter Saudi Arabia were often refused access. |
