\n\t\t\tBahrain\u2019s state-run\u00a0news agency reported on Sunday that Head of the Military Judiciary, Brigadier Youssef Rashid Fleifel, had charged members of a civilian “terrorist cell,” and referred them to the High Military Court to set a date for their trial.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tFleifel did not give further detail on the number or identities of those, who are to stand trial.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tOn May 9, Bahrain\u2019s public prosecution referred the case of Fadhel Sayed Abbas Hasan Radhi, a victim of enforced disappearance, to the military court. It was the first referral of a civilian to trial before a military court since 2011.<\/p>\n

\n

\n\t\t\t\t\u201cThis is a shameful move by the authorities designed to strike fear in the heart of the population. It is also a serious blow for justice in Bahrain. Military trials in Bahrain are flagrantly unfair. And trying civilians before military courts is contrary to international standards,\u201d Samah Hadid, Director of Campaigns at Amnesty International\u2019s Beirut regional office, said at the time.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n\t\t\tShe added, \u201cThe decision to transfer Fadhel Sayed Abbas Hasan Radhi to the military court must immediately be quashed. He must be given immediate access to proper legal representation, informed of the charges against him, and tried in a civilian court, according to international fair trial standards.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tRadhi was forcibly disappeared for over seven months after his arrest on September 29, 2016 at his family home in Hamad town, southwest of the capital, Manama.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tDuring that time, he was not allowed access to a lawyer and was cut off from the outside world.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tThousands of anti-regime protesters have held demonstrations in Bahrain on an almost daily basis ever since a popular uprising began in the country in mid-February 2011.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tThey are demanding that the Al Khalifah dynasty relinquish power and allow a just system representing all Bahrainis to be established.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tManama has gone to great lengths to clamp down on any sign of dissent.\u00a0On March 14, 2011, troops from Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates were deployed to assist Bahrain\u00a0in its crackdown.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tScores of people have lost their lives and hundreds of others sustained injuries or got arrested as a result of the Al Khalifah regime\u2019s crackdown.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tOn March 5, Bahrain\u2019s\u00a0parliament\u00a0approved the trial of civilians at military tribunals in a measure blasted by human rights campaigners as being tantamount to imposition of an undeclared martial law countrywide. King Hamad\u00a0ratified the constitutional amendment on April 3.<\/p>\n
