Protesters, carrying pictures of Sheikh Issa Qassem and Bahrain’s flags, walked to the streets after the Friday prayer in west of the city and condemned Bahrain ruling regime’s suppressive acts.

Bahrain’s Al-Wefaq National Islamic Society said on its Twitter account on Friday that regime troops stormed the house of Sheikh Issa Qassem in Daraz.

Witnesses said dozens of troops surrounded the area and stormed the house by breaking the main gate.

Al Wefaq condemned the “brutal” act and blamed Al Khalifa regime as the main cause of such aggression. The group said, adventurism of Al Khalifa regime has reached to its highest point and urged an immediate probe of numerous human rights violations and torture cases done by regime forces.

Bahrainis have been staging demonstrations since mid-February 2011, demanding political reform and a constitutional monarchy, a demand that later changed to an outright call for the ouster of the Al Khalifa family following its brutal crackdown on popular protests.

The Manama regime has arrested many rights activists, doctors and nurses since the uprising began.
