Two other Saudis were arrested on the second day of Ramadan.

Tawasol contributes to strengthening relations between detainees and their families, and is one of the means that helps detainees communicate with their families.

Tawasol offers other services for families of detainees, such as filing applications to visit detainees, or paroles in certain circumstances, such as a death, wedding or other family occasion, in addition to communicating with the detainees’ lawyer.

The portal includes other electronic services away from traditional methods. These services aim to enable families to communicate with their families in a safe and secure manner.

The Ministry of Interior deals with people involved in terrorist activities transparently, by announcing the number of detainees in public investigation prisons, a report in the Okaz newspaper said.
