This might give you some idea as to what is going on:
..."Then came the arrest of three young people because of their work in an website that has allowed a degree of freedom of expression. Bahrainonline has, over the past four years, become the main forum for criticism of the Al Khalifa’s policies, and had attracted more visitors than those who read the regime’s discredited media. Their arrest led to an international outcry against this flagrant attack on freedom of expression. The situation was exacerbated by a serious event at the University of Bahrain, which is headed by a member of the Al Khalifa family. Maryam Al Khalifa, who obtained her degree through a distant learning programme from Cairo, took her revenge against a notable scientist for lobbying for the Bahraini people in London and Washington. She became so wild in her reaction that she could not comprehend the situation in the same way as the team she had instructed to investigate the case did. Being a member of the despotic regime, she issued an order demoting Dr Al Singace from Head of Department to an ordinary lecturer."
