Details

Torture was a regular feature during the 1980s-1990s in Bahrain. In 2001, Sheikh Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa acceded to the throne and declared an era of national reconciliation. Despite the subsequent efforts of the Kingdom to usher in a new era of respect for the rule of law since 2001, allegations of torture and ill-treatment, particularly against opposition activists and human rights defenders, have continued. Individuals have been detained at demonstrations and public gatherings, for example, and tortured. On 17 December 2007 on Martyrs' Day aimed at paying tribute to past victims of torture, members of the Special Security Forces began a wave of arrests targeting more than 60 persons, among them over ten activists. Within the month of February 2009, several key human rights defenders in Bahrain were arbitrarily arrested and detained including Abbas Abdul Aziz Al-Umran, Sayed Sharaf Ahmed, Ali Hassan Salman, and Jaafar Kadhim Ebrahim.
