Bahrain: Possible extrajudicial execution / fear of further killings: Nidal Habib Ahmad al-Nashaba

Nidal Habib Ahmad al-Nashaba, aged 18, was shot dead by security forces during protests in al-Duraz on 4 May 1995. The protests were staged to commemorate the 40th day after the killing of another youth, ‘Abd al-Hamid ‘Abdullah Qassem, aged 17, in al-Duraz on 25 March.
