7The sentence was made during a secret session held on Thursday [December 12, 2013].Notapahana nandritra ny fotoam-pitsarana miafina natao tamin'ny Alakamisy 12 Desambra 2013 ny didim-pitsarana.
8Back in March, a judge decided to dissolve ACPRA and sentenced two of its founders, Mohammad al-Qahtani and Abdullah al-Hamid, to 10 and 11 years in prison respectively.Tamin'ny volana Martsa, nanapa-kevitra hanafoana ny ACPRA ny mpitsara iray ary nanome sazy 10 sy 11 taona an-tranomaizina tsirairay avy ho an'ireo olona roa mpanorina ny fikambanana, Mohammad al-Qahtani sy Abdullah al-Hamid.
9In June, another co-founding member, Abdualkareem al-Kadr, was convicted and sentenced to eight years in prison.Tamin'ny volana Jiona, mpikambana mpiara-manorina iray hafa, Abdualkareem al-Kader, no nambara fa meloka ary voasazy higadra valo taona an-tranomaizina.
10In previous sessions, the judge denied al-Saeed access to his lawyers.Tamin'ny fotoam-pitsarana teo aloha, tsy navelan'ny mpitsara haka mpisolovava i Al-Saeed.
11After, al-Saeed had refused to talk as long as his rights were violated, the judge decided to postpone the trial.Nandà hiresaka (atao famotoroana) i all-Saeed taorian'izany raha mbola voahitsakitsaka ireo zony, ka nanapa-kevitra hanemotra ny fotoa-pitsarana ny mpitsara.
12And on Thursday, he suddenly decided to rule.Tamin'ny Alakamisy, nanapa-kevitra tampoka hamoaka didy ilay mpitsara.
13ACPRA published a statement [ar] with a transcript of a phone call al-Saed had made to his lawyer:Namoaka fanambarana [ar] ahitana ny resadresaka an-tariby nifanaovan'i al-Saed tamin'ny mpisolovavany ny ACPRA:
14Today at 8 AM I was taken from the prison to a car after being handcuffed.Androany tamin'ny 8 ora maraina, nalain'ny fiara tao am-ponja aho rehefa avy nofatorana gadra vy ny tanako.
15They took me to the court and they brought me to the judge's office which was empty.Nitondra ahy tany amin'ny fitsarana izy ireo ary nentiny tao amin'ny biraon'ny mpitsara izay babangoana aho.
16Judge Issa al-Matrudi came and told me: “You have a session today”. al-Saed: “You did not specify a timing in the previous session and my lawyer comes every week to ask you about the next session, but you did not specify any, and now you want to hold a secret session!Tonga ilay mpitsara antsoina hoe Issa al-Matrudi ary nilaza tamiko fa: «Manana fotoam-pitsarana ianao androany”. al-Saed: “Tsy namaritra fandaharam-potoana ianao tamin'ny fotoam-pitsarana teo aloha ary tonga isan-kerinandro ny mpisolovavako mba hanontany anao mikasika ny fotoam-pitsarana manaraka, saingy tsy namaritra daty ianao, ary amin'izao fotoana izao ianao te-hanatanteraka fotoam-pitsarana miafina!
17I reject that!”Laviko izany!
18The judge: “No, the session is not secret. The doors behind you are open.“Mpitsara: «Tsia, tsy miafina na atao mangingina ny fotoam-pitsarana, misokatra ireo varavarana aoriananao.
19” al-Saed: “For a session to be public it has to be announced before so my representatives can attend and people can witness.”». al-Saed: “Ho an'ny fotoam-pitsarana azon'ny daholobe hatrehina, tokony ambara mialoha izany mba ahafahan'ireo solontenako manatrika izany sy ny olona mba hanatri-maso.”
20The judge: “I am the head of this session and I am the one who decided whether it is public or not.Mpitsara: “Izaho no lehibe sy mitarika ity fotoam-pitsarana ity ary izaho ihany no manapa-kevitra raha azo atrehin'ny daholobe izany na tsia.
21” al-Saed: “We have talked about this before and repeating what has been said is useless and thus I refuse to talk at all.”” al-Saed: “Efa noresahantsika izany teo aloha ka tsy ilaina ny mamerina izay efa nolazaina ka mandà tsy hiresaka mihitsy aho.”
22In addition, ACPRA published an article that al-Saed wrote in prison [ar] in which he says:Fanampin'izany, namoaka lahatsoratra nosoratan'i al-Saed tany am-ponja [ar] ny ACPRA izay mivaky hoe:
23I am the proud prisoner Umar Mohammad al-Saed.Gadra afa-mirehareha aho, Omar Mohammad al-Saed.
24I present to you the motivations and reasons behind my imprisonment: my hatred towards injustice, suffering, misery, taking advantage of people's silence, treating them as if they were fools and denying them their human needs (modern education, decent jobs and housing) for personal brutal gains supported by the authorities to protect theft and corruption.Ampahafantariko anao ny antony nandrisika sy ny antony nanagadràna ahy: ny fankahalako ny tsy rariny, ny fijaliana, ny fahantrana, ny fanararaotana ny fahanginan'ny olona, ka mandray azy ho tahaka ny adala ary manaisotra aminy ny filàna maha-olombelona (fampianarana maoderina, asa sy fonenana mendrika) ho tombotsoan'ireo olona maherisetra tohanan'ireo manampahefana mba hiarovana ny halatra sy ny kolikoly.
25Twitter user Sultan al-Fifi commented on the flogging sentence:Mpisera Twitter Sultan al-Fifi naneho hevitra momba ny didy mikapoka karavasy:
26It is normal for those who consider the people a herd of sheep to consider flogging an appropriate punishment for anyone that disobeys the shepherd.Tsy mahagaga ireo izay manasokajy ny olona ho toy ny andian'ondry raha mihevitra fa sazy sahaza ny kapoka karavasy no hoan'izay tsy mankatò ny mpiandry ondry.
27ACPRA member and al-Saed's brother Abdullah al-Saed tweeted:Mpikambana ao amin'ny ACPRA sady ralahan'i al-Saed, Abdullah al-Saed nisioka hoe:
28This unjust sentence is an honor to Umar al-Saed and disgrace to Judge Issa al-Matrudi.Voninahitra hoan'i al-Saed ity didim-pitsarana tsy rariny ity ary fahafaham-baraka hoan'ny mpitsara Issa al-Matrudi. Fitantarana manokana ataonay momba ny fitsarana ireo reformista ao Arabia Saodita ity
