31 Dec 2011

On the eve of New Years, another child's life was taken in Bahrain. 15 year old Sayed Hashim Sayed Saeed was shot with a teargas canister in the face which caused his death. Picture of Sayed Hashim with 14 year old Ali AlShaikh who was shot in the neck with a teargas canister on August 31st.

The teargas canister which reportedly killed 15 year old Sayed Hashim, still covered in his blood: and next to his blood


According to eyewitnesses:

Sayed Hashim was shot in the head with a teargas canister by the riot police. When 3 boys and a woman tried to save him, they were shot at with teargas, some of the teargas was shot near Sayed Hashim were he lay. Then the riot police attacked those trying to save Sayed Hashim, beating some with batons, one may have a broken arm and another has a serious injury. When one woman said "you killed him" one of the riot police shouted "shut up and don't you dare speak of this".

Lawyer Zahra Massoud went to the morque, she was prohibited from entering the area where Sayed Hashim's body is being kept.
