The editor of the Riyadh Chamber of Commerce monthly who also served as a regional editor for the London-based magazine al-Majallah was detained without charge in November 1990. He reportedly alerted Western news organizations to a demonstration by Saudi women, including his wife, to protest the informal driving ban. Al-Azzaz is held in Al-Mabaheth al-Amma Prison without legal representation.
