Bahrain not seeking to dissolve Shiite opposition group

Tuesday, 19 April 2011


DUBAI, Apr 18: Bahrain does not seek to dissolve the main Shiite opposition group Al-Wefaq, and wants it as a "partner for the future," Foreign Minister Sheikh Khaled bin Ahmad al-Khalifa said Monday in Dubai. "We're not there to dissolve Al-Wefaq (the Islamic National Accord Association). Wefaq committed some violations; there is a court case. But there is no witch hunt." -AFP
