Imam Shirazi World Foundation calls to support the Bahraini Physicians

Imam Shirazi World Foundation calls the international society to take responsibility to put an end to the Bahraini regime’s violations of Physician rights amid its continuous oppression against a peaceful and unarmed nation.

The foundation’s letter brings the world’s attention to a group of verdicts recently issued by the kingdom’s juridical system against a number of physicians and human rights activists. The verdicts range between what is claimed as ‘arousing chaos’ to ‘participating in protests’. However, the letter describes these verdicts as ‘tyrannical’ and being a part of the authorities punishing reactions to the legitimate demands of radical democratic reforms in the country.

A group of Physicians and workers in the public health sector have been sentenced for treating people injured due to the ongoing security forces’ oppression- which is an obvious violation to the International Laws and Human Rights Convention approved by Bahrain.

Imam Shirazi World Foundation has addressed more than 100 international organizations including UN departments and offices, NGOs, Human Rights activists and organizations, Lawyers without Borders, World Union of Physicians, World Health Organization, Amnesty International, and Foreign Ministries to stand in solidarity with the peaceful and unarmed Bahraini nation.
