Amnesty Int’l: Five Years on & Bahrain Gov’t Still Arrests Political Opponents in Name of Counter-Terrorism

AhlulBayt News Agency - Amnesty International stated that the Bahraini authorities continue to silence the opposition by the use of unnecessary force, arrest and imprison protesters and political opposition leaders, and torture detainees.

This came as part of a campaign launched by Amnesty, marking five years since the eruption of the Arab Spring, to address the situation in a number of affected countries.
