Rights Groups Warn about Dire Conditions for Prisoners in Bahraini Jails
News - Middle East: Human rights organizations have warned about dire conditions for prisoners of conscience lodged in Bahraini jails, saying the Al Khalifah regime continues to brutally torture and terrorize them at the notorious Jau Prison.
The groups said that undercover officers have on several occasions lately transferred at least a dozen political prisoners from the prison, located south of the capital Manama, to an undisclosed location.
Informed sources, speaking on condition of anonymity for fear of reprisals, were quoted as saying in media that the Bahraini officials have frequently stormed the Fifth Building of Jau Prison this month, bundling away at least seven detainees on August 9.
They abducted another one two days later and moved away three prisoners more recently. Their whereabouts and fate remain unknown.
