A great big thank you to all those who have supported and contributed to this humanitarian cause.
Zainab Al Khawaja's release has been confirmed.
We are now striving for the release of the other prisoners.
Zainab Al Khawaja, a Bahraini human rights activist was on a peaceful sit-in protest at a roundabout in Bahrain, she was then attacked with tear gas canisters, handcuffed, dragged across the roundabout and abused in public where she was then detained on 15/12/2011.
This video shows details of the inhumane treatment committed against Zainab by police forces:

We, the undersigned, demand an urgent release of Zainab Al Khawaja who is currently being held at a prison in Manama, Bahrain.
All those who have been involved in the attack must be held accountable!
