Seven months after the sentencing a Twitter user to five years in jail for
defaming the Emir of Kuwait, another Twitter user Ayyad Al-Harbi was
sentenced this Monday to two years in jail for the same charge. Al-Harbi
wrote several tweets critical of the Emir and the oppression practiced
against protesters.
