Bahraini human rights organisation says the executions only happened 'because of the unconditional support lent to dictator Hamad by Washington and London'.

Sixteen cross-party MPs and Peers have delivered a letter to the British Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt urging him to press the Bahraini government to end the abuse of female political prisoners.
