Dubai Bahraini security forces have beaten children and threatened them with rape and electric shocks after detaining them in protest-related cases in February, the anniversary of a 2011 pro-democracy uprising, rights groups said on Wednesday.
A government representative did not comment on the specifics of the accusations in response to a Reuters query, saying in a statement that Bahrain took the protection of human rights “extremely seriously” and had a “zero-tolerance policy” of mistreatment in the justice system.
