On Thursday, February 27, 2020, the illegitimate Al-Khalifa regime’s courts issued a one-year prison sentence against al-Khateeb “ preacher” al-Husseini Sheikh Abd al-Muhsin Mulla Atiyah al-Jamri.
Al-Khalifa regime had arrested Sheikh Al-Jamri from the bridge of the martyr Al-Nimer while he was going abroad, where he was taken to investigate for delivering a sermon on a religious occasion, before the Public Prosecution decided to imprison him for 7 days, and then renewed Imprisonment for 14 days pending the investigation, followed by a postponement by the unlawful court, along with his imprisonment throughout this period.
It is noteworthy that Al-Khalifa regime has escalated the series of summonses and arrests against imam Hussein’s preachers since Ashura, as a continuation of its brutal sectarian approach. Meanwhile, repression on a sectarian basis and the systematic violations of the rights of scholars and preachers were increased during the month of February.
