AhlulBayt News Agency - The Bahraini extremist Mohammed Al-Binali, one of the militants of the so-called Islamic State in Iraq and Greater Syria (ISIS), announced the death of his friend Abu Talha Al-Bahraini stating that it took place during a battle in the northern countryside of Aleppo.
Al-Binali tweeted on his personal account Wednesday (June 3, 2015): "I would like to convey to you the good news of the martyrdom of the beloved Abu Talha Al Bahraini in the northern countryside," attaching a photo of him with the deceased to the tweet.
Various reports revealed that "Abu Talha Al-Bahraini" who was killed in Aleppo in the ranks of the so-called Islamic State in Iraq and Greater Syria (ISIS) was born to a Yemeni father, who had been granted the Bahraini nationality a few years ago.
Abu Talha used to study at Al-Hidaya Al Khalifa Secondary Boys School in Muharreq before starting to work in a security body, which wasn't specified, after failing in high school.
Al-Binali stated that Abu Talha used to receive a salary that amounts to 3,000 USD (approximately 1,100 BD) he; however, preferred to live in the land of Islam.
Most of the Bahrainis who were killed in the ranks of ISIS were members of the security bodies and pro-government Bahraini tribes or were recently naturalized. The authorities granted them Bahraini citizenships and job privileges, in an attempt to change the demographics of the country.
Last month, a Bahraini court sentenced the Bahraini human rights activist, Nabeel Rajab, to six months in prison over a tweet in which he stressed that the doctrine adopted by the Bahraini army is bringing about more extremists due to the spread of Takfiri (ISIS) thought inside the military institution.
