Protesters confronted Bahraini prince Sheikh Mohammed Bin Essa Al Khalifa as he entered a "Doing business in Bahrain" seminar with the Manchester Chamber of Commerce on Thursday.
Sayed Khalil, a student from Bahrain, who has now been granted asylum in Britain, explained, "I had to flee to Britain for safety. In Bahrain they were hitting and arresting everyone political, especially the Shia Muslims. Nurses, doctors, engineers, students, women, everyone. My cousin, he lost an eye, he is in prison now."
Matthew is a nurse at the Manchester Eye hospital. "I had to be here today, so I took a days leave. In my union branch I will be raising the plight of the nurses and doctors and trades unionists from Bahrain who have been sent to prison. Top businessmen may not be concerned about what is happening, but health workers are." Full story...
