(Ahlul Bayt News Agency) - Bahrain's government has put an advertisement in Pakistan's newspapers to recruit Pakistani mercenaries to help its crackdown on anti-government protesters.
In the advertisement the Bahraini government invited Pakistani mercenaries who have a record of serving in anti-riot forces or military to join Bahrain National Guard (BNG).
The advertisement, titled "Urgent Requirement: Manpower for Bahrain National Guard," calls on forces such as “anti-riot instructors” and “security guards” to enlist in BNG.
Tens of thousands of Bahraini protesters have been holding peaceful anti-government rallies throughout the country since February, demanding an end to the rule of the Al Khalifa family.
Scores of people have been killed and many more have been arrested and tortured in prisons in a government-sanctioned crackdown on peaceful protests since the beginning of the demonstrations.
