BCHR demands medical care for Bahraini detainees

The Bahrain Center for Human Rights (BCHR) marked Universal Health Coverage Day by demanding Bahraini detainees be granted access to medical care.

AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): The Bahrain Center for Human Rights (BCHR) marked Universal Health Coverage Day by demanding Bahraini detainees be granted access to medical care.

According to BCHR, prisoners in the Bahrain are being denied access to proper health care services despite having been diagnosed with illnesses such as diabetes.

At least 10 detainees are reportedly suffering from more ‘severe illnesses’ and have repeatedly collapsed due to deprivation of medical care.

BCHR cited a report compiled by activists which alleges that a number of the sick inmates are in life threatening conditions.
