The Saudi Civil and Political Rights Association (ACPRA) (Arabic: جمعية الحقوق المدنية والسياسية في السعودية, romanized: Jamʻīyat al-Ḥuqūq al-Madanīyah wa-al-Siyāsīyah fī al-Saʻūdīyah) is a Saudi Arabian human rights non-governmental organisation created in 2009.[1] On 9 March 2013, the Saudi court sentenced two of its prominent leaders to at least 10 years in prison for "offences that included sedition and giving inaccurate information to foreign media", while dissolving the group.[5] The association is also known in Arabic by its acronym HASEM.[6]
