Bahrain Mirror: Bahrain's appeals court commuted on Tuesday (November 29, 2016) the 2-year jail term against the prominent Shiite cleric Sayed Majeed Al-Mashaal to 6 months only over the charge of taking part in Diraz protest.
The head of Ulama Islamic council also faces one-year jail term over inciting disobedience of laws. Meanwhile, the court is still looking into his third case.
