Desperate Call of Rohingya Prisoner from Saudi Arabia

Mohammed Eliyas, son of Haji Abul Huson from Hayon Hali, Maungdaw who was sentenced to jail in Saudi Arabia for not processing a valid residential permit.

He is now cell no. 8 where he spends sleepless nights on top of his frail physical health.

Mohammed Eliyas desperately calls for help in order to release from the prison since he has no relatives in Saudi Arabia.

He has fled Burma after facing persecution under the hands of Burmese government where Rohingya continuously suffer repeated discrimination and persecutions causing many to leave the county through dangerous journey.

He is one of thousands of Stateless Rohingya put behind the bars in Saudi Arabia and many other countries in the Gulf, Southeast Asia and East Asia for not processing legal documents to reside in the countries.

Many Rohingya prisoners are yet to receive legal aids from NGOs and Rohingya organizations from across the world.
