DUBAI- Prominent Bahraini rights campaigner Nabeel Rajab, in detention for alleged remarks criticizing the kingdom's prison system and its involvement in a war in Yemen, has been taken to a hospital with a heart condition, supporters said on Twitter.
The 51-year-old activist, founder of the Bahrain Centre for Human Rights, had been repeatedly imprisoned since pro-democracy protests rocked the Western-allied Gulf island in 2011.
A message on his Twitter account, which is run by his supporters, said Rajab was taken to a hospital by ambulance from prison after he suffered from heart problems.
