KH channel presses detention case, says lawyers barred 18 days

WHAT HAPPENED

On the evening of 11 August, Sabereen News posted that 18 days had passed since Hussein Baroud's detention without anyone being allowed to meet him personally, including three lawyers who had been retained for him, and asked what Baroud had done to be treated this way. The post does not name the detaining agency, the charge, or the jurisdiction. The rung is preponderance: the statement itself is established, but there is no outside coverage of the detention in the retrieved evidence and no second line on the denial of counsel.

    Today marks 18 days since the detention of Hussein Baroud without allowing anyone to meet him personally, including three lawyers retained for him. Is there a state in the world where a lawyer cannot meet his client?

    يمر اليوم ١٨ يوم على اعتقال الأستاذ حسين بارود دون أن يسمحوا لأحد بلقائه شخصيًا، بما فيهم ثلاثة محامين توكلوا عنه. هل هناك دولة في العالم لا يستطيع المحامي أن يلتقي بموكله؟
