Our Embassy in Bahrain has raised the issue of access to medical treatment for Dr Abduljalil Alsingace, along with a number of other cases, with the Ombudsman for the Ministry of Interior. We encourage the
Government of Bahrain to meet all of its human rights obligations, and ensure all defendants have access to the medical care they require. Our Ambassador in Bahrain has raised our broader concerns about detainee rights and prison conditions with the Government of Bahrain at the highest levels, and will continue to do so.
The UK has provided support to improving the judicial system by strengthening the checks and balances in the judicial process through working with the
Ministry of Justice,
Attorney General and the Supreme Judicial Council on the court administration system reform. We have also introduced members from the
Attorney General’s Office and the
Special Investigation Unit to the experience of the public prosecution services in UK, and will continue to provide technical support to develop independent prosecution services in line with the human rights standards.
