Report: Bahrain police search home of top cleric
A main opposition group in Bahrain says police have searched the home of the Gulf nation's most senior Shiite cleric, who has strongly sided with anti-government protesters. The reported raid could touch off more clashes on the strategic island nation, home to the US Navy's 5th Fleet.
The group Al Wefaq says security forces entered the home of Shiek Isa Qassim early Friday in Diraz, about 10 kilometers (six miles) west of the capital, Manama. (AP)
