Dear (Name of MP),

I write to you as your constituent and as a supporter of Loujain AlHathloul, a Nobel Prize nominee, and a prisoner of conscience in Saudi Arabia since May 2018. As I write this, Loujain is potentially being subject to torture and other inhumane and degrading treatment behind bars in Saudi Arabia for calling for peaceful reform. Loujain has been tortured, placed in solitary confinement and sexually assaulted already in the past two years in prison in Saudi Arabia.

(Name of the country) ratified several important international human rights treaties and is dedicated to protecting human rights for all people. Mr/Ms (Name of MP), it is our duty to ensure that our country respects human rights , but furthermore  does not legitimize horrendous human rights violations and abuses  committed  by our allies.

Our government engages and has a relationship with Saudi Arabia, and it is my hope that  Human Rights is put at the forefront of all discussions with Saudi Arabia, now and in the future.  As your constituent I would like to know what (name of country) has done to ensure the safety of political reformers in Saudi Arabia? Why is Loujain AlHathloul still arbitrarily detained after two and a half years? Why isn’t anyone allowed to visit her? Why has there never been any investigation regarding her torture?

We, as constituents, and you as our representatives, can not let our government engage with Saudi Arabia without making sure that basic human rights are at the core of the relationship.

As Saudi Arabia is hosting the G20 summit this year, it is the right moment to ask Saudi Arabia to free Loujain AlHathloul and her fellow activists whose sole crime was to ask for peaceful reforms in their country.

Respectfully,

Your Name
