Bahrain Mirror: Bahrain's public prosecution questioned the political assistant of the Al-Wefaq Secretary-General, Khalil Al-Marzooq, over Diraz assembly.
The prosecution summoned Al-Marzooq for interrogation on the morning of Tuesday (November 15, 2016) and decided to release him after concluding the interrogation.
The Bahraini authorities have launched since June the worst campaign since the Saudi and Emirati forces entered the country to crush democracy-demanding protests in March 2011.
Bahrain Forum for Human Rights said that summoning activists by the Prosecution, and convicting them with charges, is a means to "justify" the travel ban imposed on them; a measure that received harsh criticism from the United Nations and Washington.
