Bahraini youth tortured in Dry Dock Detention Center

A Bahraini youth is reportedly being subjected to severe torture following his transfer to Bahrain’s Dry Dock Detention Center.

AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): A Bahraini youth is reportedly being subjected to severe torture following his transfer to Bahrain’s Dry Dock Detention Center.

Activists reported on Tuesday that Sadiq Rida Hassan Abbas Aborwais was being brutally beaten and electrocuted by guards at the prison.

Aborwais was arrested at a police checkpoint last month without proper cause.

His case is only the latest in a long string of allegations against authorities at Dry Dock who are accused of subjecting prisoners to a systematic campaign of harassment and torture.

Last year, inmates described the prison conditions as ‘intolerable’ and ‘tragic’.
