Saudi Arabia detains two HR activists

DUBAI: Saudi Arabia has arrested two human rights activists, one of whom tweeted a depiction of the birth of Christ on Christmas Day, a monitoring group said on Tuesday.

The arrests of Essam Koshak and Ahmed al-Mshikhs are "part of the ongoing attacks on human rights defenders in the country," the Gulf Centre for Human Rights said on its website.

"** charges have been directed against either defender but it is believed that their online activities are the reason behind their arrest," said the centre, which has ******s in Copenhagen and Beirut.

It called for their immediate and unconditional release.

Koshak has been detained in Makkah since Sunday, the Gulf Centre said.

On Twitter, he is pictured against a map of the Middle East and wearing Western dress including a flat cap of the kind popularised by the cartoon character Andy Capp.

Koshak describes himself as a "rights defender", and has tweeted Western media reports about Saudi Arabia. Koshak has also retweeted comments from other activists, including the banned Civil and Political Rights Association (ACPRA).
