Published: 06:04 PM, 11 Feb, 2025Five years after her husband was executed in Saudi Arabia, Egyptian Noura Fouad is still seeking his remains, unable to lay his body to rest and pay her respects at his grave.He had been an upstanding man"trapped by traffickers", she added,"and his criminal record in Egypt was clean".
UN special rapporteurs Morris Tidball-Binz and Alice Jill Edwards recently warned in a statement that Saudi"executions of foreign nationals appear to be increasingly taking place without prior notification to death row inmates, their families, or their legal representatives"."We learned of his execution from his colleagues, then from the media," she said, her throat tight.
"We can't say across the board that every single person has never had access to a lawyer," she said,"but at least in 99 percent of the cases that we have documented, they do not." However, one foreign diplomat in Saudi Arabia who spoke on condition of anonymity said"we don't necessarily get the info from the Saudi authorities, and sometimes we get it very late to act".Including its own nationals, Saudi Arabia executed a total of 338 people in 2024, up from 170 the year before. So far this year, it has already executed 56 -- 22 of them foreigners.
