Urgent Legal Assistance: Bangladeshi Citizen Detained in Saudi Arabia in a Crystal Methamphetamine-Related Case

Dear Saudi Legal Experts,

I am seeking urgent legal guidance regarding my brother, a Bangladeshi citizen who has been detained in Khamis Mushait, Saudi Arabia, since 23 September 2026 in connection with a reported crystal methamphetamine-related case.

Unfortunately, our family has very limited information about his legal situation. We do not know the exact charges against him, whether the investigation has been completed, or whether his case has been referred to the Public Prosecution or the Criminal Court.

We also do not currently have his Iqama number, which makes it difficult for us to obtain official information about his case.

As a family, we are extremely worried about his safety and future. We urgently need guidance from a qualified Saudi lawyer who can help us understand his legal rights and the available legal procedures.

I would sincerely appreciate your advice on the following questions:

1. How can we officially verify the exact charges against him? 2. How can we determine whether his case is still under investigation or has been referred to the Public Prosecution or Criminal Court? 3. Is it possible to obtain his case number or detention details without knowing his Iqama number? 4. What are the possible legal consequences under Saudi law for a crystal methamphetamine-related case? 5. What legal options are available to defend him, and can a lawyer review the evidence and circumstances of the case? 6. Can a family member appoint a lawyer on behalf of a detained foreign national? 7. What steps should we take immediately to protect his legal rights?

We are desperately seeking reliable legal assistance and would be deeply grateful for any guidance or advice.

Thank you for your time and consideration.
