Bahrain Mirror: The High Criminal Court adjourned the case of prominent activist, and head of Bahrain Center for Human Rights, Nabeel Rajab, until May 17, 2017. The court adjourned the hearing to listen to the investigations officer's testimony, in the case accusing him of spreading false news, insulting a foreign country and the Interior Ministry.

Rajab is tried in this case after he was accused of posting "tweets" on his twitter account, in which he talked about torture of detainees in Jaw Central Prison during the March 10, 2015 events. He is also tried for his tweets criticizing the war on Yemen.
