Death

[edit]

Al-Ashiri was arrested (IN WHICH CITY?) and charged with providing false news, inciting hatred towards the regime and the promotion of sectarian on 2 April 2011. One week after his arrest, Al-Ashiri was reported dead while in government custody under mysterious circumstances. Bahraini authorities claim that he died 9 April of complications due to "sickle cell anemia." (WHAT DID HIS FAMILY SAY?) Currently, there is some speculation (BY WHOM?) that Al-Ashiri was beaten to death (WHAT EVIDENCE?). [citation needed] According to CPJ's viewing of the website, none of the government's allegations were found. (I DON'T UNDERSTAND THE LAST SENTENCE. WHAT WEBSITE? WHAT ALLEGATIONS?)[citation needed]
