| Scores of medical employees detained for treating injured demonstrators, rights groups say. Last Modified: 01 May 2011 15:25 |
| In Bahrain, human-rights workers say at least 50 medical staff are still missing after a crackdown on hospital care for injured anti-government demonstrators. There are fears that some of the detained staff could face the death penalty for treating protesters. Among them is Dr Al Akri, a prominent physician arrested on March 17 during a military raid at Salmaniya hospital in Manama. His wife, Fareeda al-Dallal, was also arrested and beaten under custody last Tuesday. She told Al Jazeera in an interview that the last time she spoke to her husband was two weeks ago, and she does not know where he is now. |
