مقال عن الطفل علي حسن في ويكيبيديا http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ali_Hassan Ali Hassan Alqudaishi[1] (Arabic: علي حسن) is 11 or 12-year old Bahraini boy who was arrested due to allegedly participating in an "illegal" protest during his country's national uprising. Alqudaishi was arrested on 14 May 2012 and released without bail during a trial about one month later. His next trial is on 20 June.[2][3] According to rights group, Alqudaishi is one of the youngest detainees in Bahrain since the uprising began fourteen months ago in February 2011.[3] [edit]Biography Ali Hassan is a student in the sixth grade. He has three sisters and a bother.[4] While his family,[4] lawyers,[3] a number of news agencies[2][3] and rights groups[5] gave his age at eleven, a government statement said he was twelve.[6] [edit]Arrest Bahrain Center for Human Rights (BCHR) said Alqudaishi was arrested on 13 May by plainclothes policemen near his house in Bilad Al Qadeem, a neighbourhood of Manama. However, Noura Al-Khalifa the chief prosecutor for juveniles said the arrest happened on 14 May when Alqudaishi was "blocking a street outside Manama with garbage containers and wood planks".[3] "It was Saturday, and we were playing. They came and blocked the street, and then left, so we went back out and played a game, and then some civilians came and took pictures of us", Alqudaishi said.[7] He added, on the next day he was "playing in the street" with two of his friends at his age when policemen arrested him. According to him, his friends were able to make it away, but he stopped when a policeman threatened to shoot him with a shotgun.[5][6] A spokesman of Information Affairs Authority said it was "incorrect" to think he was just playing adding that Alqudaishi was "not only in custody for participating in an illegal gathering, but for his involvement in burning tires and road blocks".[3] Alqudaishi was first held in Nabih Saleh police station then moved to Isa Town juveniles detention center.[4] Mohsin Al-Alawi, Alqudaishi's lawyer, said he visited the the boy who then denied participating in an "illegal gathering".[5] Shahzalan Khamees, another lawyer defending the boy reported that he was abused during arrest.[4] She also said "[h]e is very sad all the time" and that "All he says is 'I want to go home. I want my mother'. He is frightened and says they are going to punish him. He is only a child".[6] However, a statement by the government said that Alqudaishi "is receiving social care and tutoring at the [detention] centre".[8]While in custody, Alqudaishi was allowed to attend his final school exams.[3] After his release, Alqudaishi said he was not mistreated in detention and that "treatment was good". He said he spent most of his time doing sport or cleaning the place.[9] [edit]Trial Alqudaishi's first trial was in a juvenile criminal court on 4 June 2012 and the second on 11 June.[10] He was charged with "joining an illegal gathering" with nearly a dozen of people[8] as well as other protest-related charges. On 11 June, three lawyers defended Alqudaishi in the trial which lasted for ten minutes and resulted in releasing him without bail.[11] According to chief prosecutor, Alqudaishi pleaded guilty of the charges saying it was on his third attempt to block the street when he was arrested. She further claimed that Alqudaishi said he along with his friends were given three Bahraini Dinars (about 8$) by "a man accused of stirring trouble".[3] Khamees suggested that the accusations made against her client were not true because it is impossible for Alqudaishi to block a road with a garbage container because it is "so heavy that you would need two grown men to lift it".[6] She confirmed Alqudaishi pleaded guilty, but according to her, he then added "a man told me in the investigation that I would be released immediately if I said I dropped trash in the street."[4] The trial was postponed to 20 June.[3] [edit]Reactions A number of rights groups called for Alqudaishi's immediate release. Among them is the Ireland-based Bahrain Rehabilitation and Anti-Violence Organization which issued a statement regarding the "growing number of children detained for investigation in security cases". BCHR expressed its concern for targeting children under fifteen.[5] Khamees said "[a]uthorities should be more than satisfied with the time Hasan has spent in jail and the damage they have caused to the boy by imprisoning him" and that the government should "treat children better".[8] She also named the boy a political prisoner.[7] Khadija Habib, Alqudaishi's mother said he was innocent and the accusations against him "fabricated".[4] Al Wasat local independent newspaper said that Alqudaishi's case caught "great sympathy" on Facebook and Twitter, and that a number of "former MPs, political society members, human rights activist and citizens" demanded his immediate release.[4] The BBC Arabic reported that his case "received considerable attention by the international media" citing an article in the The Independent as an example.[11] [edit]References
