Hathloul was jailed in December for nearly six years under cybercrime and counter-terrorism laws
A Saudi court has upheld the original sentence of the women’s rights activist Loujain al-Hathloul, who had championed women’s right to drive and for an end to Saudi Arabia’s male guardianship system.
Hathloul was sentenced in December to nearly six years in prison under broad cybercrime and counter-terrorism laws after a lengthy trial that drew widespread international condemnation, but was released last month having served half of her custodial sentence.
