Last month, the Bahrain Center for Human Rights (BCHR) documented 17 arrests, and 2 of them were later released.
Some arrests took place after 6 citizens were summoned for interrogation, while 4 were arrested from the street, 2 from a checkpoint, 3 from Bahrain International Airport and 1 in house raids and 1 from Court.
The Bahrain Center for Human Rights monitored the organization of 19 protests in a number of areas in Bahrain, and the authorities suppressed at least 1 demonstration.
According to BCHR’s statistics, most of the protests and marches were organized in solidarity with prisoners of conscience and to demand the whitewashing of prisons and the release of the rest of the prisoners, amid renewed and continuous calls rejecting normalization with Israel and demanding the complete severance of relations with the entity, and most of the marches were to denounce the Zionist attacks against the Palestinian people and the Lebanese people.
Accordingly, the Bahrain Center for Human Rights renews its call on the authorities to whitewash prisons of all prisoners of conscience, especially children, the sick and the elderly, as the majority of the symbols reach the age of over sixty, so the Center calls for the immediate and unconditional release of opposition figures, including Sheikh Ali Salman, Abdul Jalil Al-Singace, Abdul Hadi Al-Khawaja, Ali Mushaima and others.
BCHR calls on the authorities in Bahrain to remove restrictions on the rights to freedom of opinion and expression and freedom of peaceful assembly demanding the release of prisoners and condemning the Zionist attacks rejected by the people of Bahrain
