At least the doctors had the chance to speak in court and the defence
\nlawyers could forward a case, even if largely ignored. In this case, the
\nfirst 11 defendants in the Feb 14th Youth Coalition, the defendants
\ncan\u2019t speak, torture is ignored and the Judge leaves room whilst defence
\nlawyers are putting their cases. Instead of yapping on about bombing
\nSyria, US and UK should put pressure on Bahrain, a much easier place to
\nget change.<\/p>\n
Naji is a human rights defender and Director of the Bahrain Youth
\nSociety for Human rights. He has been tortured extensively, went to
\nhospital twice and boycotted today\u2019s proceedings as Judge Dhahrani is
\ntotally biased and a member of the Khalifa clan. Today\u2019s session was
\npostponed and the next session on 29th September, will sentence eleven
\npeople including Rihanna al Mousawi, who\u2019ve had no real defence.<\/p>\n
