The General Director of Capitol Governorate Police at the Ministry of Interior clarified on Tuesday that the family of the deceased person, Mahmood Isa Mohammed Al Jazeeri, signed papers a few days ago to receive his body but has refused to take it directly to his hometown
of Nabiah Saleh for burial.
The General Director stated that the family wants to take the body to Diah for burial rituals and then to Nabiah Saleh for burial. He said that this would establish a precedent that is contrary to religious and social traditions in Bahrain.
