Former UAE prisoner sheds light on Ahmed Mansoor's detention conditions

A former inmate of an Emirati prison where activist Ahmed Mansoor is detained has described the conditions the political prisoner is being held in.

The activist, who won the Martin Ennals for his activism in 2015, ended a four-week hunger strike in April over the conditions of his imprisonment, which included an unofficial ban on family visits and solitary confinement. that Mansoor was kept in “terrible conditions” and that he was “moving slowly” and appeared to be “very weak”.

A former prisoner, who also chose to hide his identity for the same reasons, told GCHR that Mansoor’s cell had no bed and no running water. His toilet was a hole in the ground, and that because of excessively bright lights fitted in the room, prisoners like Mansoor had asked for it to be turned off and spend the vast majority of the day in the darkness.

Responding to the descriptions provided by the former inmate of Al Sadr, the International Campaign for Freedom in the UAE called for Mansoor’s immediate release from custody.
