Hello everyone,
The petition has only been online for three days and we've already hit 1000 signatures. This is amazing - thank you so much for taking the time to add your name to the list, and for informing others about the situation. 

As things stand, there do not seem to have been any developments in Qureiris' case, however media sites such as The New York Times, The Washington Post, CNN, The Guardian, and Al Jazeera are have published articles, making the public more aware; let's hope their stories are read and acted upon.

This petition has also been shared by Helen Clark - former Prime Minister of New Zealand, Fatima Bhutto - a famous author and activist, and by Baroness Hussein-Ece, OBE, a member of the House of Lords. 
What this means is that social media can make a difference. Making noise gets us noticed. We can make a change.

For now, I ask you to keep sharing the link to this petition with friends, family, and colleagues. For those of you who would like to take further action, here are some Twitter usernames of those who may have power to make a change:
