(Ahlul Bayt News Agency) - In a Tuesday statement, Al-Wefaq National Islamic Society stressed that its speech totally adheres to legal and moral frameworks and this is not an issue of dispute.
Al-Wefaq emphasized that the speech of its Secretary-General, Sheikh Ali Salman, has always adhered to high values, advice and discipline, adding, if it wasn't for this, Bahrain would have slipped into the authority's traps through the killings and torture and demolishing of mosques and collective punishment it carries out against the people. The Friday tribunes that support and stand for the disenfranchised citizens have taken an advisory approach calling for justice, equality and unity as the tribune's core religious and patriotic duty.
The tribune has a duty to reject oppression, corruption and crime against the people and to call for justice by fulfilling the rights of every citizen, especially their political rights in real power-sharing and choice of representatives in the executive and legislative authorities, and this the core problem in Bahrain, al-Wefaq said.
Al-Wefaq affirmed that the terms it uses are not made up, but are rather human rights and professional terms used by international organizations and were included the Bahrain Independent Commission of Inquiry (BICI) report, adding, the BICI report has confirmed that the Bahraini judiciary is used to attack and retaliate from dissidents, and the U's High Commissioner for Human Rights, Ms. Navi Pillay, described Bahrain prosecutions as "political persecution", in addition to what Amnesty International said about the judiciary's sentences are a "travesty of justice".
Al-Wefaq demanded the authority's speech be rationalized, and affirmed that the patriotic speech that emphasizes on Islamic and national unity will not stop, because this is what the country needs. The incitement of sectarianism and organized crime and mocking in Bahrain's identity and history must end, al-Wefaq stressed.
Al-Wefaq called on the Ministry of Justice and Islamic Affairs to stop interfering in issues related to the religious speech as it is not of its duties and it has no right to pursue and target every opposing opinion to the authority.
