Bahrain Mirror: A Bahraini court postponed on Sunday (May 7, 2017) the trial of a Bahraini woman, his son, nephew and others, to May 22. The suspects are accused of putting a hoax bomb in A'ali village.
The court refused the request offered by lawyer of detainee Hajar Mansour (49 years) to release her on a bail, for being a mother for 2 children and for taking care of her 90-year-old mother.
Detainee Hajar Mansour is the mother-in-law of human rights activist Sayed Ahmad Al-Wadaei who resides in the British capital, London.
Human Rights Watch said in a statement that a large group of masked men, accompanied by police officers, detained Sayed Al-Wadaei's 18-year-old brother-in law, Nazar Sayed Namaa Al-Wadaei, at a house in Jid Ali on March 2. On March 5, police in civilian clothes went to the home of Nazar Sayed Namaa Al-Wadaei's mother and Sayed Al-Wadaei's mother-in-law, Hajar Mansoor Hasan, and summoned her to the notorious CID, where she was detained later."
The statement further stated that before her arrest, Hajar called one of her family members and told them that her son Nazar Sayed Namaa Al-Wadaei had called her to say that CID officers had tortured him and forced him to implicate other relatives in wrongdoing.
