Saudi cartoonist Mohamed Al Ghamdi (“Al Hazza”) sentenced to 23 years in prison
Just as he was about to be released after serving a 6-year prison sentence for his cartoons, Mohamed Al Ghamdi, alias Al-Hazza, has just been sentenced to 23 years in prison following the reopening of his trial in December 2023, with no possibility of appeal.
Cartooning for Peace expresses its support and its solidarity with the cartoonist and his family, who are calling for his immediate and unconditional release.
