Bahraini regime forces have arrested families of several distinguished political prisoners, after they took part in rallies across the Persian Gulf kingdom over the past days to show solidarity with their jailed loved ones and demand their immediate release amid the coronavirus pandemic.
According to reports by the London-based Bahrain Institute for Rights and Democracy (BIRD) and Americans for Democracy and Human Rights in Bahrain (ADHRB), Bahraini nationals Jaafar Ramadan and Ramadan Issa were summoned for interrogation on April 6.
