On 24 September, an Omani court is expected to issue its verdict in the case of four detainees from the province of Musandam [ Ali Ahmed Rajab al-Obaidi al-Shahi; Ali Mohammed Ali Mazyud al-Shahi; Mohammed Abdullah Ahmed bin Rahma al-Shahi and Mohammed Sulaiman Mohammed Mazyud al-Shahi]. Authorities have not disclosed any legal basis for the detentions, citing only vague “national security” grounds, and proceedings have violated international guarantees of the right to fair trial.
