Bahrain Mirror: A Bahraini court adjourned the hearing of prominent human rights activist Nabeel Rajab until August 2, 2016, announced lawyer Mohammad Al-Jeshi on his personal Twitter account, adding that the judge rejected a request by Rajab's attorney to release the rights defender until the date of the court hearing.

This hearing will come after around 29 days of Rajab's detention. The internationally renowned activist has recently suffered medical problems during his imprisonment. He was rushed to the military hospital following a drop in his heart rate, as a result of his deteriorating health and psychological condition after being held in solitary confinement at the notorious Al-Riffa detention center.
