Allegations of arbitrary arrest and secret detention of the cousin of the Minister of
Cabinet Affairs and head of psychosocial rehabilitation at the Training and
Rehabilitation Center. According to the information received, Mr. Bader Hussain alAbdulla al-Bahri was arrested by security agents at al-Qusais police station on 22
April 2014, allegedly after his wife damaged someone’s car. The security agents
accompanied him to his house, conducted a search and confiscated his passport. Mr.
al-Bahri has not been charged to date and has had no access to a lawyer. While he
managed to make one brief phone call to his family, he was unable to tell them his
location, only that he is in the hands of the State Security Services. Concern is
expressed at the secret detention of Mr. al-Bahri without informing him and his family
of the charges pending against him, and without him being brought before a judicial
authority.
