Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what recent discussions he has had with his Bahraini counterpart on the case of Hasan Mushaima; and will he make representations to the Bahraini Government on ending his imprisonment.

Officials and ministers have regular discussions with senior Bahraini counterparts on human rights, including most recently at UNGA where Lord Ahmad met with the Bahraini Foreign Minister. We continue to follow and discuss the case of Hasan Mushaima and others, as necessary, with the Bahraini Government as well as with the independent oversight bodies.
