AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): Amnesty Norway has gathered 8121 signatures from “concerned” Norwegians who are demanding Manama free Bahraini human rights defender Nabeel Rajab “immediately and unconditionally.”
The rights group made the announcement in a Twitter post earlier this week.
On Monday, Bahrain’s top court rejected Rajab’s appeal and upheld his five-year prison sentence over tweets criticizing the Saudi-led war in Yemen and Manama’s treatment of prisoners.
The prominent activist has been in detention since the summer of 2016. He was initially sentenced to a two-year prison term over television interviews.
