(AhlulBayt News Agency) - Bahrain’s religious scholars or the Ulama are calling for mass participation in the symbolic funeral of Hassan al-Bahrani whose body was recovered in Iranian territorial waters after nearly one month of being lost at sea.
Al-Bahrani was among a group of four Bahrainis whose boat came under attack and sank while on route to Iran.
Although Manama denied any knowledge of the incident, the four men were wanted by its security apparatus.
Al-Bahrani’s body is due to be laid to rest in the Iranian city of Qom on Monday. The Ulama have also called for mourners to attend the funeral.
“We also hold the oppressive regime fully responsible for all that has been done and for what our oppressed people are being subjected to,” the Ulama said in a statement.
