MANAMA: Bahrain has hit back at a programme broadcast by Al Jazeera TV channel including fallacies against Bahrain and its people and revealing lack of professionalism and continued interference in internal affairs of countries and peoples through defamatory and provocative reports.
In a statement last night, the Interior Ministry said the programme lacked legal basis and material evidence as convicts serving their sentences at the Jaw Reformation and Rehabilitation Centre were involved in criminal and terrorist-related offences rather than political cases .
