6 | @MFQahtani: #ACPRA_Trial took two hours, it was spent on discussion about necessity of trial publicity, judge refused, we refused to acknowledge court. | @MFQahtani: #ACPRA_Roa ora no naharetan'ny fitsarana, adihevitra momba ny tokony hanaovana fitsarana atrehin'ny be sy ny maro, ny fandàvan'ny mpitsara, ny fandàvanay sy ny tsy fankasitrahanay ny fitsarana no nibahana tamin'ny fotoam-pitsarana. |
7 | @MFQahtani: #ACPRA_Trial presiding judge asked us to answer questions, we told him we only answer if a public trial is held, we walked out #Saudi #ACPRA | @MFQahtani: #ACPRA_Nangataka taminay ny mpitsara mba hamaly ny fanontaniana apetrany, novalianay hoe rehefa atrehin'ny be sy ny maro ny fotoam-pitsarana vao hamaly izahay, nivoaka izahay avy eo #Saudi #ACPRA |

9 | @MFQahtani: I told the judge that we cannot waive our right to a public trial because we have advised our fellow [reformist], Mohammad al-Bajady, to not recognize the legitimacy of the [secret] Specialized Criminal Court. | @MFQahtani: Nilaza tamin'ilay mpitsara aho fa tsy maintsy takianay foana ny zonay hanaovana fitsarana azon'ny daholobe atrehina satria nanoro-hevitra ireo namanay [reformista] izahay, Mohammad al-Bajady, mba tsy hankasitraka ny maha ara-dalàna ny Fitsarana manokana [mangingina] ataon'ny fitsarana momba ny fandikan-dalàna. |
