Top Pakistani Shia scholar demands release of 'Sheikh Ali Salman'

Senior Pakiostani Shia cleric condemned the arrest of Bahraini leading political party Al-Wefaq leader Sheikh Salman and called on the Bahraini regime to release him.

Secretary General Allama of Majlis-e-Wehdatul Muslimeen (top Shia political-religious party in Pak) condemned the arrest of Bahraini leading political party Al-Wefaq leader Sheikh Salman and called on the Bahraini regime to release him very soon.

Allama Raja Nasir in his statement criticized the United States and Britain support to Bahrain Monarchy atrocities against people and political opponents of the Bahrain regime.

He urged the Bahrain regime to release Sheikh Salman forthwith and accept the people sentiments against them.

Bahraini forces on Sunday arrested Sheikh Salman who leads Bahrain’s main opposition bloc, al-Wefaq National Islamic Society. Manama announced Tuesday that the cleric was remanded in custody for a week pending further questioning.
