Yemen’s Houthi rebels are subjecting a detained Yemeni model to an “unfair trial” and have threatened her with a forced virginity test in a case "marred with irregularities and abuse," Human Rights Watch said on Wednesday.
The lawyer for Entisar al-Hammadi told the rights organization that the model has been brought before a Sanaa court twice this month on charges of committing an indecent act and drug possession. Hammadi was reportedly denied access to her court-appointed lawyer, who in May was suspended in what he said was retaliation for his speaking to the press.
