There were 27 executions that year.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The human rights group called the increase in the number of executions in Saudi Arabia a sign of the Saudi government&#8217;s devaluation of human lives, stressing that formal trials do not meet many international legal standards.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">According to the report, in 2020, when the number of executions decreased, it was not because the Saudi government had decided to reduce the execution, but because Muhammad bin Salman aimed to restore his image and it was a personal event. In 2019, 186 death sentences were carried out and provoked a lot of criticism against the Saudi government.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ariana News Agency: A human rights organization reported a sharp increase in executions in Saudi Arabia last year compared to 2020.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":6290,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":"","_mat_hreflang_tags":[],"addvideo":"","video_duration":"","farsit":"","target":"1","top_stories":"0","top":"0"},"categories":[3],"tags":[83],"class_list":["post-6289","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-world","tag-saudi-arabia"],"acf":{"myctype":"change","target":true,"top_stories":false,"top":false,"farsit":""},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.5 (Yoast SEO v27.3) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>148% increase in death sentences in Saudi Arabia in 2021<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Ariana News Agency: A human rights organization reported a sharp increase in executions in Saudi Arabia last year compared to 2020.
