Bahrain Mirror: The German authorities released on Tuesday (March 21, 2017) a Bahraini citizen it had arrested for 5 days in Berlin, based on an international arrest warrant.
Bahrain had accused Fayyad al-Shweikh (27 years old) of joining a terrorist affiliation, before it asked the Interpol to arrest him.

German authorities do not suspect the perpetrator committed any crime.
