Saudi-backed Bahraini forces have beaten to death a 16-year-old boy as anti-regime demonstrations continue across the Persian Gulf country. The teenager, identified as Husam al-Haddad, was killed when regime forces launched an attack on a peaceful demonstration on Friday night. Bahrain’s Interior Ministry confirmed Haddad’s death. Anti-regime demonstrations in Bahrain continue despite the heavy-handed crackdown by the security forces. Meanwhile, a Bahraini court has sentenced human rights activist Nabeel Rajab to “three years in jail over three cases of taking part in unauthorized protests.” Press TV has conducted an interview with Hisham Jaber, director of the Center for Middle East Studies, to further discuss the issue.
