Top Bahraini Sunni opposition leader released after 4 years

The Bahraini regime released a top Bahraini Sunni opposition leader from prison after more than four years in custody.

The WAAD (National Democratic Action Society) secular group confirmed on its official Twitter account that Ibrahim Sharif was released Friday.

Bahrain has been rocked by unrest since security forces brutally crushed pro-democracy protests in 2011 demanding reforms, a constitutional monarchy and an elected prime minister.

Sharif was one of 20 prominent pro-democracy activists, calling for political reforms and was convicted by a military-led tribunal, after the government crack-down. He was the leader of WAAD during his arrest in March 2011.


He was sentenced in June 2011 to five years in prison for allegedly "plotting to overthrow Bahrain's 200-year-old monarchy."

Sharif's release comes four days after a Bahrain court sentenced prominent opposition leader Sheikh Ali Salman, the secretary General of al-Wefaq group, for four years for allegedly “inciting disobedience and hatred in the kingdom.”
