AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): Another Bahraini detainee started a hunger strike on Saturday over abuses in the notoriously brutal Jaw Prison.
Ali Al-Banna claims that he was transferred to a wing in the facility that houses ‘naturalized’ citizens and beaten by the guards.
The 24-year-old has been in detention since 2012, and after enduring years of torture he has lost both his sight and hearing on his left side.
Throughout his time in detention has been repeatedly denied access to desperately needed medical treatment.
Al-Banna was charged with a whole slew of allegations, including attempted murder, setting fire to an armored police vehicle as well as rioting in prison.
