To: His Majesty King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa, King of Bahrein Copy to: Nawaf bin Mohamed Al-Mawadeh, Minister of Justice and Islamic Affairs |
I wish to express my concern about the continued detention and health of human rights defender Abdulhadi Abdulla Hubail al-Khawaja. The dual Bahraini-Danish citizen is serving a life sentence after an unfair trial for his peaceful human rights activities.
Al-Khawaja has faced ill-treatment and torture during his arrest and subsequent arbitrary detention. His health is deteriorating from multiple health conditions resulting from the severe physical, psychological and sexual torture he endured, as well as a serious lack of medical treatment provided by prison authorities.
In light of the above, I urge you to release him immediately and unconditionally. In addition, I call on you to launch an investigation into the alleged torture or other ill-treatment, to make its results public, and bring to justice anyone responsible.
Thank you for your attention.
