MSF welcomes the release of its staff in Bahrain

Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) welcomes the release of Saeed MAHDI, and recognizes that he has now been granted access to a lawyer. MSF firmly maintains that Saeed Mahdi was working with the organisation in the capacity of driver and translator. We remain concerned about the circumstances in which he was arrested. MSF is still unable to resume working in Bahrain without guarantees that its premises and personnel would be respected.
