The regime forces chased the citizens in Manama alleys and attacked them with different grenades terrorizing citizens and the residents in the area.Among the big number of arrests was a religious figure and member of the central body of the Olamaa Islamic Council, Sheik Fadhil al-Zaki. Al-Zaki wa handcuffed and held arrested in a humiliating manner during the protests.Al-Wefaq National Islamic Society stated that this reflects the regime’s hostility against religious figures.
