Bahrain 'protest' boy, 11, to be monitored at home

An 11-year-old boy accused of taking part in anti-government protests in Bahrain may remain at home but must be monitored by authorities, a court has ruled.

Ali Hasan’s case has been closely watched because he was one of the youngest demonstrators taken into custody in the unrest in the strategic Gulf island nation, which serves as the base for the US Navy’s 5th Fleet.
