The security authorities in Oman first detained Sultan Al Sa’adi in 2011 for his role in the Sohar protests and then again they picked him up last year for violating the country’s cyber laws and insulting the Sultan. In March, the Omani monarch pardoned all bloggers as well as those held for public demonstrations and Al Sa’adi was one of them.
