A Yemeni actress and model accused of an "indecent act" and drug possession is facing an unfair trial by rebel authorities, Human Rights Watch says.
Intisar al-Hammadi, 20, who denies the charges, was detained by the Houthi movement's forces in Sanaa in February.
Her lawyer alleged she was physically and verbally abused by interrogators, subjected to racist insults, and forced to sign a document while blindfolded.
Prosecutors also allegedly threatened her with a forced "virginity test".
