The High Appeals Criminal Court upheld 7-year jail term against Bahraini convicted, along with 3 others, of kidnapping a youth, beating him in Dar Kulaib farm and forcing him to confess in front of a video camera that he is an informant and posting the video on website of "Bahraini uprising intelligence".

A Bahraini court has commuted the prison terms of five defendants accused of assembling in the Dar Kulaib area, sentencing three of them to three years and two others to two years, also ordering the confiscation of seized items.
