Profile in Persecution

Mohamed Abduljalil Abdulla

Mohamed Abduljalil Abdulla was arrested without a warrant in 2016 from his house in Bahrain. Now 34 years old, Mohamed was never informed of the charges against him. He has been subjected to numerous due process violations during his unfair imprisonment.

On 3 July 2016, officers in civilian clothing raided Mohamed’s house and warrantlessly arrested him. He had not been summoned before and was not informed of the reasons for his arrest. He was taken to the Criminal Investigation Directorate, where he was detained for about 3 weeks. He would call his family for a short duration and would sound uncomfortable.

He ended up confessing to the charges against him under torture.
