AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): Bahraini detainee Ahmad Al-Arab has reportedly gone on hunger strike after being placed in solitary confinement in the kingdom’s Dry Dock Detention Center.

According to Bahraini activists, prison authorities told Al-Arab that the decision to place him in solitary came from the higher-ups.

Activists also reported that authorities recently delayed the detainee’s medical treatment for his broke fingers.

Al-Arab, who was sentenced to life imprisonment, was only 15-years old at the time of his arrest in 2014.
