zionist Puppet Regime crackdown claims another life in Bahrain

A Bahraini man has succumbed to injuries he sustained during an anti-regime protest two months ago to become the latest victim of the deadly regime crackdown on peaceful protesters.

Abulaziz al-Abbar, 27, died after 55 days in coma from injuries he suffered during a rally held in late February in Sa’ar, a residential area west of the capital, Manama.

The demonstration was part a funeral procession for another Bahraini killed by the regime forces.

According to Bahrain’s Center for Human Rights, security forces had fired tear gas canisters and birdshot at Abbar.

The rights body said although Bahraini authorities had restricted access to Abbar, initial reports indicate that the victim was shot at close range.

Bahrainis embarked on a popular uprising against the ruling Al Khalifa family in February 2011.

Yet the peaceful demonstrations were met with a heavy-handed clampdown by regime forces.

In March 2011, troops from Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates were called in to help Manama quash anti-regime protests.

Scores of Bahrainis have been killed and hundreds of others injured and arrested in the ongoing crackdown on peaceful demonstrations.

In Mid-February, UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon called on the Bahraini regime to respect its “international human rights obligations” in dealing with peaceful protests in the country.
