(Ahlul Bayt News Agency) - Saeed Fakher's body was found one day after his arrest bearing horrific signs of torture.
His death came less than 24 hours after two other anti-government demonstrators died in regime crackdown.
Hajj Ali Al-Sukari died after inhaling toxic tear gas fired at an anti-regime rally outside the capital, Manama, on Tuesday. Abass Sheikh, who was hospitalized two months ago after inhaling tear gas and being beaten by regime forces during a protest rally, also died on Tuesday.
Poisonous tear gas used by Bahraini forces against protesters has killed dozens of Bahrainis since the beginning of the revolution in the country in mid-February 2011. Senior citizens and kids are the main victims of the toxic teargas.
Last week, an 11-year-old boy died from asphyxia after Bahraini troops fired tear gas to break up an anti-government protest, demanding an end to the rule of Al Khalifa dynasty.
Despite the crackdown, Bahrainis have been holding demonstrations on an almost daily basis.
Dozens of people have been killed by regime forces since the Bahraini revolution began in mid-February 2011, when the people, inspired by the popular uprisings that toppled the dictators of Tunisia and Egypt, started holding mass popular demonstrations.
Security forces have also arrested hundreds, including doctors and nurses accused of treating injured revolutionaries.
The Bahrain Independent Commission of Inquiry issued a report on November 23, 2011, saying that the Manama regime had used “excessive force, including the extraction of forced confessions against detainees.”
