Updated Detainees list At exactly `o’clock this afternoon, dozens of Bani Jamrah residence made a sit-in protesting at what was published last Monday-February 20, 2007-of the Bahraini Ministry Interior spokesman disclosing alleged a training youth camp aimed to destabilize the security,

 taking Bani Jamrah as headquarter. This allegation has been frowned by personalities and institutions of the society, including those of Bani Jamrah.
