In the early hours of 18 April, unknown assailants lobbed teargas grenades into the home of Nabeel Rajab, president of BCHR in the village of Bani Jamra. Tear gas penetrated into the adjacent home of Rajab's 78-year-old mother who suffers from respiratory disease, causing her great distress. To Human Rights Watch's knowledge, only Bahrain's security forces have access to the types of grenades thrown into the Rajab family's compound.
