Bahraini forces sexually harass child

Bahraini activists say the regime forces have tortured and sexually assaulted a child as the nation witnesses more crimes committed by the Saudi-backed Al Khalifa regime.

The campaigners have released new footage, showing a handcuffed child with his pants down.

Activists claimed the minor was beaten and sexually harassed by Saudi-backed forces.

He was left unconscious with his hands tied behind his back, and was found lying in a street by residents in the village of Sanabis, outside of Manama, they said.

Bahrain has been in a revolution since anti-government protests broke out in February 2011.

Forces loyal to the Al Khalifa ruling family have since killed scores of protesters and arrested thousands more.
