Human rights in Bahrain

Flag of Bahrain.svg

Bahrain's record on human rights has been described by Human Rights Watch as "dismal", and having "deteriorated sharply in the latter half of 2010".[1] Their subsequent report in 2020 noted that the human rights situation in the country had not improved.[2]

LGBT concerns

Homosexuality is not illegal per se. Criminal sanctions against LGBT people in Bahrain tend to come from several very broadly written laws against perceived "immorality".
