28-year-old, Eman Salehi, was shot dead in front of her 6-year-old son
by a military man believed to be a member of Bahrain's Sunni royal
family.
Salehi, who is a sports journalist for Bahrain's state run television
was out with her son that night when her car was stopped in Bahrain city
of Riffa, an area that is popular with military and with members of the
ruling Al Khalifa family.
She was shot in the head by a man who then turned himself in to authorities and his reason is still unknown.
The identity of the killer has not been revealed to the public,
allegedly due to his royal ties. However, activists identified the man
as a member of the Al Khalifa royal family and have expressed concern
that justice may not be served due to the killer's royal connections and
also since the case is being investigated by the military tribunal and
is conducted behind closed doors.
