Verbatim

« Nine men were sentenced to death by a Houthi court in Yemen in a mass trial based on « dubious » charges of sodomy (anal sex). A Houthi-run court in the Yemeni capital, Sana'a, sentenced 13 others to jail for allegedly spreading homosexuality, while three more were sentenced to flogging. Commenting on the situation, Human Rights Watch (HRW) researcher Niku Jafarnia called the mass trial an « abhorrent disregard for the rule of law ». « The Houthis are handing down the death penalty after mass trials and torture, while jailing and flogging others for their sexual orientation. » »
