Bahraini forces have arrested a number of minors without offering any legal justification for their detention as the ruling Al Khalifah regime does not shy away from its repressive measures and heavy-handed crackdown in the tiny Persian Gulf kingdom.

Human rights activists, requesting anonymity, said Jassem Abdul Jalil Hassan, Ali Hussain Abdullah and Hussain Ali had been remanded in police custody for a week, pending further investigation, Arabic-language Lualua television network reported.

Meanwhile, a Manama court has sentenced another minor, identified as Mohammed Abdul Hussain, to a year in prison.

The teenager had been summoned for questioning in April without being informed of the accusations leveled against him.
