Bahrain summons top opposition leader for questioning -Wefaq

[rss]

Bahrain's main Shi'ite Muslim opposition group said on Tuesday the interior ministry had summoned its leader for interrogation after he met a visiting U.S. official who was subsequently ordered to leave the kingdom. Bahrain is a ally of Washington in a volatile Gulf region and has long provided a base for the U.S. Navy's Fifth Fleet. Sheikh Ali Salman, secretary-general of al Wefaq and his political assistant Khalil al-Marzooq, were summoned by Bahraini authorities after a meeting they had with the U.S. Assistant Secretary of State for Democracy, Human Rights and Labour, Tomasz Mali**wski, a spokesman from Wefaq told Reuters. On Monday, Bahrain ordered Mali**wski to leave for having "meetings with a particular party to the detriment of other interlocutors, thus discriminating between one people, contravening diplomatic **rms and flouting **rmal interstate relations".
