| 2017-01-28 |
| [ALMASDARNEWS] Security forces in Bahrain shot and injured one person and allegedly tortured another, who later died, during a raid against supporters of Bahrain's Shia holy man Ayatollah Isa Quassim, in Diraz on Thursday, according to reports. Police officers reportedly shot at Quassim’s supporters, who have been staging sit-in protests since June, when the holy man’s citizenship was revoked on the grounds that he had allegedly provoked violence and fostered ties with foreign powers. |
