It's been a month since the family of Loujain al-Hathloul has heard from the imprisoned women’s rights activist, raising further concerns about her safety in Saudi Arabia's notorious maximum security prison.
Hathloul’s family, which has been unable to visit the prison since March, is supposed to speak with her by phone once a week. On Sunday, Hathloul’s sister Lina al-Hathloul said they hadn’t heard from her in over 30 days.
