Bahrain suspends opposition newspaper

Bahrain suspended the Gulf Arab states main opposition newspaper on Sunday, after accusing it of falsifying news about recent sectarian unrest and a government crackdown on protests.Mansoor al-Jamri, Al-Wasats editor-in-chief, said it was not clear if its print license would be revoked or not. Al-Wasats printing press was damaged during the unrest and on March 17 a group of plainclothes men with weapons were in the streets around its offices, holding up production.Bahrain has seen the worst unrest since the 1990s after mostly protesters took to the streets in February, inspired by uprisings that toppled leaders in Egypt and Tunisia, to demand a bigger say in the Sunni-ruled country.
