Bahrain: Martyrdom of 16-year old at the hands of security forces

During evening hours on Thursday 6 October 2011 security forces in Bahrain killed 16-year old youth Ahmed Jaber Al-Qattan in a quarrel in Abu Saiba area to the west of Manama. Ahmed received shoguns at his chest from a sort of weaponry used for catching birds, in turn banned by international laws.

For its part, Al-Wefaq society of Bahrain contended that security forces continue to target more than half of the country’s areas on almost a nightly basis as part of collective punishment. Worse, the punishment measures only intensify during weekends and public holidays.

In reality, the killing of Ahmed reflects sustained systematic repression against those demanding democratic reforms in Bahrain. Furthermore, Al-Wefaq stressed that a sizable number of protestors end up being injured during confrontations with security forces. Yet, injured protestors shun medical facilities fearing possible arrests.
