Students gather at the Serail at
Parliament Square asking for Talal’s law
to be implemented
In memory of Talal, an olive tree was
planted on campus in January. As Talal’s
parents, brothers and sister watched on,
friends dug the earth and planted the tree.
Another emotional farewell to the “legend
of a rebel.”
