On August 31, 2024, Saudi authorities arrested British national, Ahmed al-Doush, a senior business analyst with Bank of America at King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh. He was returning to the UK, where he resides, after visiting Saudi Arabia with his wife and children. The charges against him appear to be in relation to social media posts and his alleged association with a Saudi critic in exile, with whom he has no relationship beyond knowing his son. He has faced multiple violations of his fair trial rights. Saudi authorities must immediately release Ahmed al-Doush and allow him to return to the United Kingdom.
