The new Saudi Arabia of the crown prince, Mohamed Bin Salmán, has two very different faces, one much less friendly than the other.The same week that the kingdom has been in the headlines around the world for allowing women to stop important activists who have been working for years in favor of women's rights and an investigation into a journalistunder the accusation of dressing "indecent clothes."

Shireen Al-Rifaie, Saudi reporter from the Dubai Al-Aan TV channel, traveled to Riad to inform about the first women at the wheel and be the protagonist of a report.She but she quickly abandoned the country as soon as she began to circulate her image on the networks with the label of "naked woman drives in Riad."The General Authority for Audiovisual Media opened an investigation against the journalist, whom she accused of "violated the local rules and slogans by dressing" indecent clothing. "

Al-Rifaie wore a set of pants, ABAYA and white scarf, but when walking before the camera La Abaya only had a button and showed a slight neckline and pants.The handkerchief was also somewhat fallen and showed part of his brown hair.A degree of "indecency" that the ultra -conservative authorities study outside that the prince himself announced in the framework of his reforms that ABAYA would cease to be mandatory.

The controversy raised by this reporter - which outside the kingdom defended himself saying that he dressed in a "decent" way - put on the table the long road that remains to go in this country governed by ultra -orthodox Islam.

In the midst of media euphoria for the first images of women behind the wheel, UN experts urged Riad to free activists arrested in recent weeks.Nine rapporteurs of the agency denounced that "human rights defenders have been arrested in a wide raid throughout the country, which is truly worrying" and evidence "a contradictory position" with opening policies.

The last detainee is Hatoon Al-Fafasi, 54, who participated for years in campaigns to ask for the end of the veto to women to drive, according to the Saudi NGO with headquarters in London Alqst.This arrest adds to May and since then at least nine activists are still deprived of liberty -five men and four women.They are accused of maintaining contacts and supporting "hostile" individuals and organizations to the kingdom and face prison sentences for up to 20 years.

They are women who have fought for rights such as being able to drive and, when the time has come to collect the fruits of their struggle, they have locked them in a campaign of arrests criticized by the UN High Commissioner Office for Human Rights.
