Video: Free Ahmed: The last man talking in the UAE about human rights violations

Ahmed Mansoor, a prominent Emirati human rights activist and winner of the 2015 Martin Ennals Award for Human Rights Defenders, was arrested early Monday (March 20, 2017) in Dubai and transferred him to an unknown place.

According to the sources, the leading human rights activist Mansour was arrested shortly after he signed, along with other human rights defenders from Arab countries, a letter addresssed to the Arab summit to be held in Jordan on March 29, calling to release prisoners of conscience and promote and protect human rights in the Arab world.

Due to his human rights work and his defense of political activists of all backgrounds, over the  past years Ahmed Mansour was the target of continual harassment and surveillance proceedings. He has been subjected to arbitrary arrests and travel ban.
