Bahrain attacks UK over riots

Manama - The Crown Prince, Sheik Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa, has accused Britain of harbouring "terrorists and saboteurs", a reference to several Muslim preachers allegedly implicated in recent riots here, the newspaper Asharq Al-Awsat reported.

Bahrain deported an unspecified number of what it said were "infiltrators from abroad" following street riots that flared in the central Gulf emirate last month and which erupted again recently. Among the deportees were a number of Shia Muslim preachers.At least three of them have surfaced in London, where their requests for political asylum are under review. AP
