Amidst growing violence, acts of hooliganism and lawlessness, a parliamentary bloc has appealed the His Majesty King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa to impose the Martial Law.
The Independent Bloc has called for the Bahrain Defence Force to intervene and protect national security and stability and preserve public and preserve properties.
The bloc also urged a ban on all illegitimate acts which may instigate violence and terror, terrorising innocent people, foment sectarian internecine strife, endanger social peace and security in addition to harming the economy and high national interests.
The bloc urged HM the King to enforce the martial law for three months under article 36 –paragraph B and article 123 of Bahrain constitution.
It also called upon HM King Hamad to impose a curfew and deploy the BDG units across Bahrain to protect security and stability, ensure the safety of public and private facilities, constitutional state institutions and preserve national economic and social achievements.
The bloc stressed the importance of HM King Hamad’s wise intervention at this critical moment after the opposition parties refused all calls to restore calm and defuse tensions and engage in a multi-party national dialogue.”Extremist movements are resorting to escalation and sectarian mobilization which led to an unprecedented disruption of security and hostile sectarian polarization at health and educational institutions”, the statement added, citing orchestrated acts to disrupt the traffic on Bahrain’s main highways.
