Amidst the ongoing torture and inhumane treatment, this is how #DetaineesOfConscience described the deterioration of their mental and physical health in UAE prisons during the tenth session of the #UAE84 trial.

The UAE #DetaineesOfConscience have been subjected to the most severe forms of torture and mistreatment in UAE prisons; following unjust convictions and fabricated terrorism charges, UAE has revoked their families citizenship, leaving them without documentation.

The mass trials of rights defenders have exposed the dark side of the UAE and undermined Abu Dhabi's years-long efforts to whitewash its image. The latest was #UAE84 against dozens of previously convicted #DetaineesOfConscience , defying UN experts who deemed this case baseless.

Serious violations have been committed against #DetaineesOfConscience in #UAE84 including coaching witnesses and imposing restrictions on lawyers, like limiting the detainees' access to case documents. The trial, began in Dec 2023, will conclude with the final judgment on July 10

Journalist #MahmoudAlHosani has been involved in numerous media projects and was a member of the Dubai Press Club, but now he is among the #UAE84 list, along with 83 other Emiratis, among the #DetaineesOfConscience who are being retried on old and fabricated terrorism charges.

According to The Geneva Observer, UN experts expressed concern about the alleged violations in #UAE84 , such as the lack of fair trial guarantees and the use of torture for forced confessions, stating that that the #DetaineesOfConscience could face the death penalty if convicted.

Despite repeated calls from human rights organizations, UAE authorities have not allowed international experts or independent observers to communicate with #DetaineesOfConscience in the #UAE94 and #UAE84 cases. What will be their fate amidst ongoing severe violations?

According to EDAC, Abu Dhabi Federal Court of Appeal has decided to adjourn #UAE84 case for judgment until July 10th, during the tenth session held yesterday, Thursday, where the court completed hearing the pleas of the lawyers and #DetaineesOfConscience .

Despite the conclusion of the #UAE84 sessions, the #DetaineesOfConscience remain in solitary confinement under harsh conditions. They endure ongoing torture, a complete lack of medical control, and are denied all forms of communication. Will this impact the judgment of July 10?

What makes state security courts oppressive? Perhaps the answer lies in #UAE84 , where authorities enacted special laws and independent systems separate from ordinary state laws, granting the right to detain #DetaineesOfConscience indefinitely after violating the legal guarantees.

During the 9th session of #UAE84 held last Thursday, many #DetaineesOfConscience said the prison administration did not allow their families to call them during Eid al-Fitr;one of them said the prosecution had deleted a large part of the written pleading he submitted to the court

Despite the conclusion of the #UAE84 trial sessions, #DetaineesOfConscience still endure solitary confinement in harsh conditions, cut off from communication with their loved ones and lawyers. How can justice prevail when the very circumstances of detention and trial are unjust?

Prominent UAE legal figure #MuhammadAlMansouri is on the list of #DetaineesOfConscience in #UAE84 . He was accused of founding and supporting a terrorist organization after signing the Reform Petition for parliamentary reforms, the same charge for which he was convicted in #UAE94

One of the #UAE84 #DetaineesOfConscience is architect #AbdulWahidAlShehhi formerly a roads management director at the Ministry of Public Works. He was arrested by UAE authorities subjected to enforced disappearance, torture and arbitrary detention for advocating political reforms

Why #UAE84 ?
Abu Dhabi's ongoing detention of detainees past their sentences and rights violations have garnered international attention. To address this, Emirati authorities have resorted to fabricating new charges, ensuring the continued imprisonment of #DetaineesOfConscience .

With hundreds of millions of dollars the UAE continuously endeavor to promote itself as a state of prosperity and tolerance focusing on towering skyscrapers and clean streets while hiding repression and torture within its prisons, particularly targeting #DetaineesOfConscience .

The 9th session of #UAE84 trial is on Thursday, April 18th, during which the court will proceed to hear the lawyers of the #DetaineesOfConscience ; however, the true purpose of this session is to continue a retaliatory mass trial where the verdict has already been predetermined.

During the 9th #UAE84 session, the lawyer representing #RashidBinSabt , one of the #UAE84 #DetaineesOfConscience , asked for a medical committee after bin Sabt's health deteriorated and that the prison administration still refuses to fulfill even his basic personal needs.

The latest Amnesty International report highlighted arbitrary detention in the UAE, noting that 23 out of 26 #DetaineesOfConscience had served their sentences but the UAE continued to detain in #CounselingCenters

Sheikh #SultanBinKayed , like other #DetaineesOfConscience in the UAE, faces violations including solitary confinement, communication cut-off, denied legal aid, and dismissed claims of torture. Now, he is facing a new fabricated case, #UAE84 .
