Is the UK facing up to Bahrain's past?

BBC NEWS UK Is the UK facing up to Bahrain's past?


Now this is a curious incident, I didnt know about this, but is definitely worthy of following up. The Bahrainis are getting all het up about this. They are calling Ian Henderson, a Britisher, as the Butcher of Bahrain. And Human Rights Watch has complained about him. See his wiki page here. Why did it come up through the blogosphere? because this gentleman is actually heading back to Bahrain for a visit. Very curious but given his links with the british political system, i daresay nothing will happen.I find it curious as to why the Bahraini Human Rights people havent launched a case against Ian Henderson here in the UK under the ICC. UK has signed the ICC, so there is no reason why a legal case cannot be launched!
