London, UK. 10th August 2018. Ali Mushaima who has been on hunger strike at the Bahrain embassy since the start of August to save his fathers life speaks with campaigners at the vigil by Inminds Islamic human rights organisation vigil calling for the immediate release of Hassan Mushaima and all the other 5000 Bahraini prisoners of conscience languishing in the Al-Khalifa regimes jails. They also demanded the British government end its complicity in the Al Khalifa dictatorship's crimes against the Bahraini people. Hassan Mushaima was one of the leaders of the 2011 mass movement that peacefully called for human rights and democratic reforms in Bahrain, which were brutally crushed by the ruling Khalifa dictatorship aided by Saudi forces, killing dozens and imprisoning thousands. In March 2017 Hassan Mushaima and other human rights defenders and opposition leaders were abducted, brutally tortured and given life sentences in mock trials for calling for democracy in Bahrain.
