We remind the authorities that any measure should respect international HumanRights standards

#Bahrain: United Nations Human Rights office concerned about the recommendations made by the National Assembly which discussed toughening punishments under the 2006 Law on the Protection of Society from Acts of Terrorism. These recommendations include increasing detention period or revoking citizenship of anyone found guilty of committing or inciting an act of #terrorism. They also provide for banning sit-ins, rallies and gatherings in the capital Manama.

We remind the authorities that any measure should respect international #HumanRights standards. More: http://sm.ohchr.org/11JADo2
