A motion to appeal can be filed within 30 days.<\/p>\n<p>Hathloul, 31, was arrested in May 2018 with about a dozen other women activists just weeks before the historic lifting of a decades-long ban on

anti-terrorism court.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this month, Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan told\u00a0<em>AFP\u00a0<\/em>that Hathloul was accused of contacting &#8220;unfriendly&#8221; states and providing classified information, but her family said no evidence to support the allegations had been put forward.<\/p>\n<p>While some detained women activists have been provisionally released, Hathloul and others remain imprisoned.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Saudi court on Monday sentenced prominent activist Loujain al-Hathloul to five years and
