Hawzah News Agency-The First Instance Court had ruled (on October 6, 2016) the imprisonment of Shaykhs al-Shehabi and al-Zaki, for 2 years, putting the verdict into force immediately. The verdict was ruled after charging them with supporting the Shiite majority spiritual leader, Ayatollah Shaykh Isa Qasim, whose nationality was revoked last June by the authorities
The Bahraini authorities have launched since last June the worst campaign since the Saudi and Emirati forces entered the country to crush democracy-demanding protests in March 2011.
In the recent campaign, dozens of activists were banned from leaving the country, while dozens of Shiite clerics were summoned and detained, as was prominent human rights activist Nabeel Rajab, who is now imprisoned.
End.
