Pillay: Bahrain Has Not Punished Security Forces
United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay said that in Bahrain, “although some security officers have reportedly been arrested, we have yet to see any prosecution of security forces for civilian injuries and deaths” during the government crackdown earlier this year. Not only did Pillay note the Government of Bahrain’s failure to prosecute these security forces, but she also said, “We continue to receive reports of the repression of small protests in Bahrain.”
Both the prosecution of guilty security forces members and the protection of peaceful protests were mandated by the recommendations of the Bahrain Independent Commission of Inquiry. The Bahraini government also said on Wednesday that it would reinstate public sector workers sacked during the crackdown.

Pomed Wire, please pass the following messages on behalf of people of Bahrain.
1- Pillay, first please put the top leader in Government of Bahrain on TRIAL and officers.
2- to Obama Adm. and U.S. Ambassador in Bahrain.
That four thousand of shiite have been saked of their jobs and the Government put in their place employees originally persian (hawala) of Salafis or Wahabis who assciate with Alqaeda.
The gape and the mistrust between peole of Bahrain and Alkhalifa family is too big too wide there is no hope fo repair at all, so that you may reconsider your attitude.
The Bahrain Revolt is strengthing steadily and no feasome of any arrest riots of mercenaries.
Therefore, I advise you it seems no compromise, no consensus no agreement.
Please do ignore this island REVOLUTION.
I am not activist nor taking part in any revolt mvoement but to advise you and I hear countiousaly, down with Hamad, calling by old women and men children even infants and kids aand say do not waste your time with alkhalifa r ime against the poor.
bye bye
