Saudi Penal Court In Riyadh Ordered Saudi Defendants To Tender Apology For Seven Days To Kuwaiti Poet Al-fahad
The Saudi Penal Court in Riyadh ordered two Saudis to apologize to the Kuwaiti poet Saud Al-Fahad on Twitter for seven consecutive days upon restoring his media and intellectual right of the poetry “Harb al-ba’eed yuwahid al-saffiya Hamoud … Bas al-belad ya Hamoud harb al-quraba” (Oh Hamoud, long war unifies the position … But, Hamoud, civil war is among kinsmen).
The court also ordered each of the defendants to post an apology on their Twitter handles for seven days after they were fined and detained. The lawsuit filed by Lawyer Faleh Al-Suba’e on behalf of the plaintiff indicated the Saudis stripped him of the right to the poem, and subjected him to attacks and insults on social media. The court agreed that the former only tried to steal Al-Fahad’s works to take over the copyright in a manner that could have distorted his poetic, intellectual and media history within the Gulf region.
