Bahrain Mirror: Head of the Monitoring and documentation department at the European-Bahraini Organization for Human Rights (EBOHR), activist Fatima Al-Halwachi, said that her father Khalil Halwachi (59 years), who has been in the pre-detention prison since over 2 years, suffered from a new stroke in prison which made him lose the ability to move his body.

Fatima posted on her own twitter account saying that her father was transferred to the Dry Dock prison's clinic and he did not receive the adequate medication or needed treatment.

She continued "in a short phone call with my father from the prison, he explained the symptoms he suffered from; inability to move his body, numbness and pain in the stomach, chest and heart."

The family reiterated its deep concern at the health of activist Khalil Al-Halwachi, especially "amid limited calls and repeated strokes he suffered from in prison."

In the same context, the Vice-President of Bahrain Center for Human Rights and the prominent human rights defender Yousif Al-Muhafda said that Khalil Al-Halwachi's family demands "to transfer him to hospital because the prison's clinic did not provide him with treatment."
