The Institution has urged all peaceful citizens to be alert, uphold national unity and shun terroristic ideology and practice and condemn both tragic incidents and to utterly shun all forms of violence, exercise self-restraint, reinforce the values of peaceful co-existence amongst all the diverse components of the Bahraini society. The Institution urged the competent bodies to promptly open an independent investigation in the two tragic incidents and to hold accountable and to impeach the killers of the policeman and the civilian and the injurers of the Asian national.
