Arab rights group slams Bahraini regime\u2019s repression<\/strong>
\n15 October, 2012 – PressTV<\/p>\n

ANHRI condemns the use of the excessive force, by the Bahraini authorities, to suppress the peaceful demonstrations that took place in several regions in Bahrain.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Arabic Network for Human Rights Information (ANHRI) has censured the Bahraini regime\u2019s use of \u201cexcessive force\u201d against peaceful protests in the Persian Gulf country.<\/p>\n

\u201c[The] ANHRI condemns the use of the excessive force, by the Bahraini authorities, to suppress the peaceful demonstrations that took place in several regions in Bahrain,\u201d the Arab rights organization said in a statement on Saturday.<\/p>\n

The Cairo-based rights group said that \u201cthe continuation of clear hostility against the peaceful demonstrations and the use of force and violence against demonstrations who call for reform, are an attempt to infanticide the Bahraini uprising.\u201d<\/p>\n

The rights group also added that Bahraini authorities should release all political prisoners and stop arresting rights activists.<\/p>\n

Suppressing anti-regime protesters \u201cproves that there is no indication that Bahrain intends to change its suppressive policy again[st] freedom of expression, opinion and people\u2019s right of peaceful demonstrations,\u201d it said.<\/p>\n

It also called on the international community to pressure Bahrain to respect human rights conventions.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe international society has to interfere to press the Bahraini regime to make sure it applies the obligations binding to it in accordance with the international covenants and human rights\u2019 charters, in addition, to execute the recommendations stipulated in the report of the universal periodic review in Geneva,\u201d the ANHRI said.<\/p>\n

Bahrain\u2019s revolution started in mid-February 2011, when demonstrators, inspired by the revolutions of Tunisia and Egypt, started holding massive anti-regime protests.<\/p>\n

Dozens of people have been killed in the regime\u2019s crackdown and the security forces have arrested hundreds, including doctors and nurses accused of treating injured protesters.<\/p>\n

A report published by the Bahrain Independent Commission of Inquiry in November 2011 found that the Al Khalifa regime had used ‘excessive force’ in the campaign of suppression and accused Manama of torturing political activists, politicians, and protesters. …more<\/a><\/p>\n
