The hashtag #SueMeSaudi became viral after a Saudi Arabian minister reportedly said that he would sue any Twitter user who compared S.Arabia’s justice system with Daesh(ISIS).



Twitter user from all around the world are mocking the judicial system of Saudi Arabia underlining their frustration about the controversial interpretation of justice in the oil-rich country.
The hashtag #SueMeSaudi became viral when officials for the S.Arabia government threatened to sue any Twitter user who compared the country’s judicial system with Daesh. The Twitter users compared Saudi Arabia with Deash because of the decision of Saudi Arabia to execute Palestinian poet Ashraf Fayadh for “spreading atheism and disrespecting the prophet” in November.
After the execution announcement, a Twitter user most probably criticised the decision of the court comparing Saudi Arabia with Daesh.  Then according to Reuters, a Kingdom’s justice ministry official was quoted by the government-aligned Al Riyadh newspaper as saying, “The justice ministry will sue the person who described … the sentencing of a man to death for apostasy as being ‘ISIS-like.’”
