Bahrain, home to the U.S. Fifth Fleet , charged 23 opposition activists with terrorism crimes connected to an international network accused of aiming to subvert the Gulf kingdom’s Sunni Muslim monarchy.
Shiite Muslim activist Ali Abdulemam was among those arrested for “planning and executing a campaign of violence, intimidation and subversion,” the official Bahrain News Agency said yesterday, citing the Interior Ministry. His arrest was “connected solely to evidence of his involvement with senior members of the terrorist network,” the ministry said.
