She begged Saudi Arabia’s king and the crown prince “to release me as I have done no wrong.”By Friday, that plea had been deleted. Her detention was one of two new cases of Saudi royals locked up during the rise of the kingdom’s de facto ruler, Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. Since his father, King Salman, ascended the throne in 2015, Crown Prince Mohammed has repeatedly locked up members of the royal family while consolidating his position. “He has a vision, Vision 2030, and I see that in that vision, there is a direction toward a type of isolation of all those who do not agree with that vision,” she said. Appealing to King Salman and Crown Prince Mohammed, she described her health status as “VERY critical” and said she had received no medical care.
