In a significant legal development, a court in the United Arab Emirates has sentenced at least 40 individuals to life imprisonment in what is being described as the second largest trial in the country's history. The trial involved at least 84 human rights defenders and political dissidents, with sentences ranging from 15 years to life in prison. Among those sentenced to life are Nasser bin Ghaith and Abdulsalam Darwish alMarzouqi. Human rights organizations have criticized the trial as fundamentally unfair and have called for the immediate release of the defendants. The court handed life sentences to 43 Emiratis for 'terror' offences.
