(Ahlul Bayt News Agency) - The protesters, who had taken to the streets of Nuwaidrat, called for the implementation of reforms and demanded that Bahrain's King Hamad bin Issa Al Khalifa step down.
Bahrainis have been holding peaceful demonstrations across the Persian Gulf kingdom since mid-February, calling for an end to the absolute monarchy of the Al Khalifa family.
But the authorities have been brutally suppressing all opposition.
On March 14, troops and police forces from Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates invaded the country to assist the Bahraini government's crackdown.
Dozens of people have been killed so far and many more wounded in the Saudi-backed attacks on demonstrators.
