ATTENTION: THIS IS AN URGENT HUMANITARIAN ISSUE.
So if you are not human, please feel free to ignore this event.

Abdulhadi Al Khawaja was arrested last year, beaten and tortured in front of his family, and has been illegally detained without a fair trial to this day. His only crime was supporting the human rights of the people of his country and promoting democracy.

He has now entered the 76th day of his hunger strike and literally on the verge of imminent death. The Bahraini government have made it very clear that they have no intention of releasing him despite pressure from Amnesty International and 15 other international human rights organisations.
