5. NIHR believes that it is important for the arrested to exercise his right to communicate with the outside world, in particular with his family, immediately after arrest, in order to inform them of his place of detention and provide him with essential requirements. Fourth: The detainee right to health care and treatment 1. The right of the detainees to health care and treatment requires that each detainee or prisoner has the opportunity to undergo a proper medical examination after his admission to the place of detention and ensuring the provision of appropriate free medical care and treatment, whenever the need arises. 2. NIHR is aware that the police departments and centers as well as reform and rehabilitation and provisional detention centers provide health care for all sick detainees or prisoners regularly, and maintain medical reports on their physical and mental health in the personal file of the prisoner or detainee. They also undergo a comprehensive medical examination at the moment of detention and release. 3. NIHR received eleven (11) complaints and identified four cases through social networks and local newspapers. It also received calls from inmates in the reform and rehabilitation center (Joe). The inmates alleged that they do not receive treatment, health care, follow-up or medications, that they are not examined by doctors who specialize in certain type of diseases, or that they are not examined by doctors on schedule. NIHR did not verify the validity of these allegations. ‫اﻟﺘﻘﺮﻳﺮ اﻟﺴﻨﻮي اﻟﺜﺎﻟﺚ‬ ‫ﻟﻠﻤﺆﺳﺴﺔ اﻟﻮﻃﻨﻴﺔ ﻟﺤﻘﻮق اﻧﺴﻨﺎم‬ ‫ ـ ﻣﻤﻠﻜﺔ اﻟﺒﺤﺮﻳﻦ‬2015 ‫ﻟﻌﺎم‬ 4. NIHR took the appropriate action by addressing the General Secretariat of Grievances or the Office of the Inspector General of the Ministry of Interior. In addition, it contacted the reform and rehabilitation center, which cooperated significantly in this regard to address those allegations. The Center emphasized dedicating special attention and periodic and continuous follow-up to the inmates who suffer from chronic diseases or diseases of a special nature such as sickle cell anemia, multiple sclerosis (MS) or dermatological diseases through their examination by specialist doctors and providing living conditions commensurate with their health condition. Section V: Right to Citizenship 1. The right to citizenship is one of the main elements of the legal personality that must be enjoyed by everyone. This right is represented by a political and legal association between the individual and the state to which the individual should be loyal. The state should protect people and grant them the advantages and rights arising from this association. Statelessness gives rises to negative consequences to the legal status of the stateless persons. 2.  Article 17, Clause “a”, of the Constitution of the Kingdom of Bahrain provides as follows: “Citizenship shall be defined by the law, and no person enjoying citizenship by origin may be deprived of it except in cases of high treason and in any other conditions specified by the law”. The Bahraini Citizenship Act of 1963, as amended, regulates the provisions relating to the acquisition of nationality, whether acquired on origin or emergency basis. It sets out the cases where nationality may be forfeited, either by change or deprivation. It further determines the cases of dual nationality or statelessness. 85
