Saudi-Bahraini Forces Kidnapped More than 100 Protesters, Out of them 4 Martyred by Police

A former Bahraini lawmaker says that around 100 people have gone missing during the Manama-ordered crackdown on the countrywide popular revolution.

(Ahlul Bayt News Agency) - A former Bahraini lawmaker says that around 100 people have gone missing during the Manama-ordered crackdown on the countrywide popular revolution.

“We don't know anything about them, we've asked hospital and ministry authorities and none of them are telling us anything about them,” said Hady al-Mussawy, formerly a parliamentarian with Al Wefaq, the country's largest political party.

He made the comments during a short protest in front of the United Nations building in the capital, calling on the world body to make sure rescue medical services operate in the Persian Gulf kingdom.

Demonstrators have been demanding the ouster of the Al Khalifa monarchy as well as constitutional reforms since February 14.

The government recently razed the capital's Pearl Roundabout, where hundreds of protesters had been camping.

At least 18 people have been martyred and more than 1,000 injured since the start of the anti-government protests during the government-backed armed attacks.

On Thursday, the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay denounced a new move by the government to take control of the country's hospitals amid the killing and injuring of protesters by the security forces.

"There are reports of arbitrary arrests, killings, beatings of protesters and of medical personnel, and of the takeover of hospitals and medical centers by various security forces," she said.
