A BAHRAINI princess has been accused of involvement in the torture of detainees during the country’s suppression of anti-government protesters this year. Some of the doctors…have alleged that Sheikha Noora bint Ibrahim al-Khalifa beat prisoners with sticks and a rubber hose, and gave electric shocks to the face with a cable.

How about some bitter irony to start the day as well?

Arab Princess Is Undercover Cover Cop

Noora hopes her work will encourage other women to follow in her footsteps and join the profession. She added: “I realise that when I entered this career, I would open more doors for my fellow females to join this force. Women have become pilots and doctors, but it’s nice to be the first to enter a field like this as I feel I opened the door for others to join.

Why not? She’s just proved that women are just as capable as their male counterparts of torture, violence, and abusing political prisoners 9_9
