Allegations of a travel ban imposed on a woman human rights defender in reprisal for
her cooperation with the United Nations, its mechanisms and representatives in the field
of human rights. According to the information received, Ms. Samar Badawi, a human
rights defender advocating for the release of her spouse, human rights lawyer Mr.
Waleed Abu al-Khair, received threats after having publicly raised the subject of her
spouse’s and other political prisoners’ detention in Saudi Arabia in a statement she
delivered to the Human Rights Council at its 27th session on 16 September 2014. On 3
December 2014, Ms. Badawi was allegedly prevented by security officials in King
Abdulaziz International Airport in Jeddah from flying abroad due to a travel ban issued
against her for an indefinite period of time. Grave concern is expressed at the
allegations that the travel ban against Ms. Badawi was imposed in reprisal for her
cooperation with the Human Rights Council. Ms. Badawi’s spouse, Mr. Al-Khair was
the subject of four communications sent by special procedures on 3 May 2012, see
A/HRC/21/49, case no. SAU 7/2012; on 12 July 2012, see A/HRC/22/67, case no. SAU
9/2012; on 24 April 2014, see A/HRC/27/72, case no. SAU 5/2014; and on 8 December
2014, see above, case no. SAU 14/2014.
