Bahrain: F1 Ignores Rights Abuses Ahead of Race

International racing bodies responsible for scheduling the Bahrain Formula 1 Grand Prix from April 19 to 21, 2013, have taken no steps to address human rights abuses that appear to be directly linked to the event. Bahraini security forces killed a protester during the 2012 Grand Prix and have increased their repressive actions in the lead-up to the 2013 race.
In recent weeks, security forces have conducted home raids in the vicinity of the race circuit and arbitrarily arrested and detained opposition figures. Protesters have indicated they will demonstrate against the Grand Prix, with the risk that the Bahraini authorities will use repressive measures to close down the protests.

In 2006 she stated that she had sung over 12,000 songs. The World Record Academy and the Guinness Book of World Records have officially acknowledgedher as the most recorded artist in music history. Learn more about her at the source
