Description: This report looks at Bahrain’s revocation of citizenship of human rights defenders and advocates after the 2011 Bahraini uprising. It analyses the Bahraini nationality law and subsequent amendments adopted by the state to revoke nationality and deny rights to its citizens to quell dissent. The power to revoke nationality and incur statelessness, though concentrated in the hands of the state, is not a power unchecked. Human rights conventions, norms, international law, and further safeguards against statelessness will also be discussed in terms of the role they play in limiting unchecked State powers of revocation.
