Al-Duhailan, a novelist and advocate for Palestinian rights, was arrested in April 2019 without an official reason, after reporting on Saudi women defying the driving ban. In early 2021, he was conditionally released with other activists and writers. Despite this, he remains on trial, but no public dates have been set for the proceedings. His case has drawn attention for the lack of transparency surrounding his detention and trial.
