Hasan Ahmed Radhi Mohamed
( Sarhan )
Hasan Ahmed Radhi Mohamed was a recent high school graduate when Bahraini authorities arrested him in 2012. He has been subjected to human rights violations on multiple occasions, including torture and unfair trial when was charged in the case of establishing and joining a terrorist cell, the February 14 Coalition, as well as in other cases. He is currently serving his sentence at Jau prison and was recently placed in the isolation building with 13 of his fellow prisoners.
Hasan was arrested on 23 February 2012 from his house in the village of Eker. Riot police gathered around the perimeter of the house, and a group of them, accompanied by masked officers in civilian clothing and officers from the National Security Agency, raided the house. They roamed and searched it without presenting any search warrant. They pulled the detainee, dragged him, and forcibly pushed him out of the house, all without presenting an arrest warrant or stating the reason for the arrest. There were police cars as well as civilian cars. When the parents asked where he would be taken, the authorities did not give any answer. They told the family that they could follow them by car and when they did, the officers began to elude them so the family could not catch up with them. The family inquired as to the Hasan’s whereabouts at several police stations, but did not get any information indicating the presence of the detainee. He was disappeared for a period of seven to ten days, until his family received a call instructing them to take some clothes for him and deliver them to the detention prison in the town of Al-Hidd.
