Bahrain Mirror: The US Ambassador to the UN Samantha Power said that the prominent activists and human rights defender Nabeel Rajab is unjustly detained in Bahrain.

Power demanded via a tweet she posted on her own Twitter account to release Nabeel Rajab without further delay after a Bahraini court postponed his trial until December 15.

It is to mention that Washington took a stricter tone towards its ally, Bahrain, with respect to Rajab's case, refusing the charges brought against him. It also called for his immediate release, considering that his indictment lacks credibility.
