The ‘Arab network' Human Rights organization slammed the ongoing prosecution of journalists and photographers, detaining them without clear reasons, at the time Bahraini authorities deny some detention cases, stirring more worry over the lives of detainees.
The organization, located in Egypt, said in a statement it had issued "the Bahraini authorities detain photographers then deny it, they deny knowing anything about where they are held, they do not disclose any information concerning them, which is alerting, raises concern for their lives and their destiny.
Moreover, the statement read "targeting journalists, photographers, and opinion makers comes days after the Bahraini national council issues its recommendations on freedom of expression and opinion."
The organization demanded that "the fate of journalists and photographers be uncovered, their well-being be guaranteed, and assured they should be set free."
