SHAFAQNA – The Bahrain Forum for Human Rights (BFHR) documented the forcible disappearance of seven Bahrainis in recent weeks, including two minors.
The two have been detained incommunicado since October 5 and November 8 respectively.
The BFHR maintains that Manama’s security forces have been employing the practice of enforced disappearances, which constitutes a serious violation of international law, as a means to muzzle freedom of expression and assembly in the Persian Gulf kingdom.
