Bahraini people have once again staged demonstrations across the tiny Persian Gulf kingdom to condemn the detention of political activists by the ruling Al Khalifah regime.
Faraan: The Al-Wefaq National Islamic Society, Bahrain’s main opposition group, said the residents of Sanabis, a town which lies in the suburbs of the capital Manama, held a peaceful protest late on Tuesday to condemn the regime’s attacks and arbitrary detentions, and to express solidarity with political prisoners.
According to Press TV, Al-Wefaq also said in a post on its Twitter account that the residents of the town of Demestan had staged a rally in solidarity with imprisoned political activists.
Holding placards that read, “We will not leave the streets until our demands are met,” the protesters called for the release of political prisoners.
“Residents of the area continue their peaceful protests in solidarity with prisoners of conscience and to demand their unconditional release,” the opposition group said in the tweet.
The town of Sanabis was the scene of protests a day earlier for the imprisonment of human rights activist Abduljalil Abdulla al-Singace, who has been on hunger strike for more than 140 days.
The protesters in Bahrain have repeatedly voiced concerns over the alarming situation of the country’s prisons and condemned Bahraini authorities’ mistreatment of imprisoned activists, demanding the immediate release of all political inmates.
