blogger

Twitter users are rallying in support of a Saudi
blogger whose sentence of 1000 lashes began on
Friday.
In May 2014, Raif Badawi was sentenced to 10
years in prison and a series of public floggings for
allegedly insulting Islam on his website. Badawi's
online network also called for an end to the
dominance of religion over Saudi public life.
On Friday, Saudi authorities
publicly lashed Badawi after weekly prayers. He is
due to receive 50 lashes every week for a period
of 20 weeks.
Social media users responded to the news of the
lashings with the hashtags #FreeRaif
, #IStandWithRaif and #JeSuisRaif :

some people stubborn heen..
