Writer Abdullah Al Riyami and former member of parliament Taiba al Mawali have both been detained in the capital Muscat. Abdullah Al Riyami may be held incommunicado and is at risk of torture or ill-treatment. Amnesty International believes that they may both be prisoners of conscience, held solely for the non-violent expression of their beliefs.
