The Use of Excessive Force against the Defendants and their Families in the Courtroom and its Surroundings The Sentence is Based on the Anti-Terrorism Law that has been Internationally Condemned The Court Bases its Sentence on Confessions taken under Torture and Testimonies of Security Officers which do not prove the Charges
GENEVA (21 December 2011) – UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay on Wednesday called on authorities in Bahrain to take immediate steps to address the “deepening mistrust” between the Government and civil society, including by promptly releasing those detained for taking part in peaceful demonstrations. “The Bahraini authorities need to urgently take confidence-building measures including unconditionally releasing those who were convicted in military tribunals or are still awaiting trial for merely exercising their fundamental rights to freedom of expression and assembly,” Pillay said. “Thousands of individuals have lost their jobs for participating in demonstrations, many students have had their education derailed - these serious violations of their economic and social rights must be immediately addressed. Those who have been unfairly dismissed should be reinstated to their original functions.” Pillay also urged the Government to address the prevailing impunity at all levels, including for security forces responsible for excessive use of force on peaceful protestors and officers who perpetrated torture, sometimes with fatal consequences, in detention centres. “We continue to receive reports of the repression of small protests in Bahrain and although some security officers have reportedly been arrested, we have yet to see any prosecution of security forces for civilian injuries and deaths,” she said. “Such impunity – at all levels – is a serious impediment to national reconciliation.”
Tear gas are used in areas where protests are not even taking place yet as a warning sign not to engage in any protests.... These are all evidence of abuse and must serve as a prime example of the Bahraini government’s grave injustices that remain unpunished. We must work together to free our activists so that they may continue telling their stories.
DUBAI — Bahrain has decided to open up its prisons to the International Committee of the Red Cross following a damning report on human rights abuse in the country, an official statement said on Friday. Delegates from the ICRC are "to visit inmates at its reformation and rehabilitation centres, as well as detention centres," Bahrain's Information Authority said in a statement. [If the criminal Khalifa regime would release all the wrongfully detained prisoners of Conscience, then there would be no need for the Red Cross to visit them! ..... Hamad's great BICI lie!]
All human rights defenders and those in detention as a result of the National Safety laws enacted in Bahrain should be freed immediately, said a delegation of six international rights organisations visiting the country.

MANAMA (Reuters) - Bahrain should drop cases against doctors and leaders of last year's protest movement because of unfair and politically motivated trials, and Western countries should suspend military sales, Human Rights Watch (HRW) said on Tuesday. Among the 14, Abdulhadi al-Khawaja, who also holds Danish nationality, has been on hunger strike for more than two weeks.
"We continue to receive credible reports of excessive force by police, including widespread and sometimes indiscriminate use of tear gas," said Assistant Secretary of State Michael Posner. "We urge Bahraini authorities to ensure compliance with international doctrines of necessity and proportionality." Posner also said in a statement that charges against those accused of offences related to political expression should be dropped and peaceful protests allowed to go ahead. Fourteen opposition figures convicted of leading the protests are in jail, some serving life sentences. Opposition parties, which this week launched a week-long sit-in to put pressure on the government, have said their protests will not stop until the ruling Al Khalifa family ends its monopoly on power and the 14 are released.

DUBAI — Bahraini detainees and activists convicted for taking part in anti-government demonstrations last year will begin a hunger strike Sunday protesting a new crackdown on demonstrators, a rights group said.
Since early 2011, Washington, Western governments, and major media scoundrels largely ignored outrageous Al Khalifa monarchy abuses. They include crackdowns on nonviolent protesters, mass arrests, torture, intimidation, and cold-blooded murder.
The measure, part of a review of action by military courts set up after Bahrain announced martial law in March, applies to 43 cases and 343 defendants, public prosecutor Ali al-Buainain told the state news agency BNA. "However, other cases will remain pending because they involve crimes of violence and sabotage against people and property," Buainain said. An official at the largest Shi'ite opposition group, Wefaq, said about 85 percent of the cases it studied were linked to freedom of speech and assembly. "Of the 1,200 cases we have reported about, 1,000 include charges such as illegal assembly, spreading false news and spreading hatred of the regime," Matar Matar, a former parliament member for Wefaq, told Reuters. Matar also said the measure should allow those charged to seek compensation. "These people were imprisoned and there was no justification for what happened to them. So there should be compensation and an investigation of those responsible,"
Zainab Al-Khawaja is freed! | Hamad's dungeons are still full!
Zainab, angryarabiya, is free!!!!!!! This is the best news of 12/20/2011! After this victory and an appropriate amount of celebration, remember all those still in Hamad's dungeons! We must continue to work for the release of ALL prisoners of conscience, the reinstatement of ALL sacked workers, students, and teachers. ALL medics must be freed. ALL charges against all of these groups must be dropped! The struggle continues!
Nigel Rodley, a former U.N. envoy on torture and one of the investigators on the BICI panel, told Human Rights Watch ... "I can confirm that our collective understanding was that the purpose of the review would be to exonerate from criminal responsibility those who have acted peacefully in the pursuit of the internationally recognized rights of freedom of expression and assembly," he said.
The Arab world has a reputation for arresting and torturing bloggers and netizens and Bahrain is no exception, particularly after its February 14 uprising.
Now That BICI is released and we now know what we knew already..... Now that the 'king' has promised reforms and has continued his sectarian persecutions as expected... Can't the Regime just see its way clear to release those it has wrongfully imprisoned? TO RELEASE ALL PRISONERS OF CONSCIENCE IN BAHRAIN AS A GESTURE OF GOOD WILL TOWARDS RECONCILIATION. YASQUT HAMAD! http://latuffcartoons.wordpress.com/
