Ex-Bahraini Prisoner Dies Due to Deliberate Medical Negligence
MANAMA (Dispatches) – A former Bahraini prisoner has died from medical complications he sustained during his time in prison, the country’s main opposition group, the Al-Wefaq National Islamic Society says. Al-Wefaq said in a post published on its Twitter page that Ali Qambar passed away on Monday after losing his battle with cancer, which he had developed as a result of deliberate medical negligence and various forms of torture in the Manama regime’s detention centers. Arabic-language Lualua television network reported that the body of the 48-year-old former prisoner was taken to his home village of Nuwaidrat, located about 10 kilometers south of the capital Manama, to be laid to rest later in the day.
