Human Rights In Bahrain

EDM number 901 in 2013-14, proposed by Jeremy Corbyn on 19/12/2013.
Categorised under the topics of Human rights and Middle East.

That this House notes that despite the publication of the Bahrain Commission of Inquiry Report in 2011 which chronicled torture and extrajudicial killing regrets that many violations of human rights continue; is shocked that there are 3,000 political prisoners, children in detention, citizenship removed from activists and arbitrary arrests amongst the many violations of human rights independently reported; and calls on the Government to make the strongest possible representations to the government of Bahrain and to refuse all arms and crowd control equipment exports to Bahrain.

This motion has been signed by a total of 44 MPs.
