Amal al-Moallimi

Amal al-Moallimi is the new Saudi ambassador to Norway and only the second female Saudi ambassador. Al-Moallimi says her appointment empowers women. But before being appointed as ambassador, she was a member of the Saudi Human Rights Commission and visited jailed women's rights defender Loujain Alhathloul in prison.
 
Alhathloul told her and other commissioners of being tortured in an unofficial detention facility and asked al-Moallimi to intervene.
 

Al-Moallimi did not intervene, and Alhathloul is still in prison and still at risk of torture.

Read more about Al-Moallimi here.
