Member of Human Rights Watch sends message via an old printer to Bahrain about human rights


International jurist and member of Human Rights First, Brian Dooley, confirmed that the human rights situation in Bahrain has not improved in three decades.
This came during his participation with activist Ali Mushaima in his sit-in in front of the Bahrain embassy in London, to demand the release of the academic Abdul Jalil Al-Singace, who is on hunger strike in Bahrain’s Jaw prison.
Dooley stressed that human rights defenders in Bahrain should not be imprisoned or ill-treated, pointing out that the authorities prevented Al-Singace from walking normally when they refused to provide him with rubber supports for his crutches, which prompted the international human rights defender to buy them for a small amount and send them to Jaw Prison by mail.
With regard to the human rights situation in Bahrain, Dooley explained that he had recently written a letter to the ambassador of the Khalifa family in London, Fawaz Al-Khalifa, regarding the human rights situation, pointing out that these conditions had not improved three decades ago when he worked with Amnesty International in the nineties of the last century.
Dooley pointed out that he wrote the letter with the old printer to indicate that the human rights situation remained the same as it was in the century, despite the technological development that enriched that printing machine.
Dooley concluded the interview by saying that “the authorities in Bahrain are presenting economic plans for the corresponding years, but the human rights situation remains the same as it was in the last century.”
