thank you.
Just tell us how most of these men ended up in this situation on death row in Saudi Arabia.
And for those listeners who don't know, cot is a plant, a substance that is used in Yemen widely and it is legal in that country.
So do you remember receiving that first phone call from the prison?
What was it like?
What were they telling you?
Actually
W how did they come to this decision and why did they come to this decision to actually contact BBC Tegrinia?
an impact.
So when they called you what did they tell you about the conditions in the prison and the situation they were in?
Aklila, when you spoke to these uh men and when you were putting this report together, do you know roughly how many Ethiopian inmates were in prison and what percentage of them were on death row?
How often were you having these conversations with these inmates?
Probably the present authorities didn't know that they were making these phone calls.
How often were you speaking to them?
such a difficult thing, actually that I totally understand.
Um, when they were talking to you, what was the overriding feeling that they had?
Were they scared?
Were they hopeful maybe that these conversations could somehow save their lives?
What was going on?
