Bahrain authorities arrest 41 people over alleged links to Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), according to statements reported by multiple outlets. Bahrain’s interior ministry says security services dismantle an organisation it alleges is tied to the IRGC, citing espionage-related concerns. The interior minister reports the arrests, and Bahrain’s state news agency carries the account.
After the arrests, Bahrain says legal proceedings are under way against the 41 people. The reports describe the action as part of security investigations related to foreign-linked activities, without providing further public details in the excerpts about the suspects, specific charges, or evidence.
Across the sources, the core points remain consistent: the number of people arrested is 41, the alleged connection is to Iran’s IRGC, the interior ministry frames the matter as an espionage or security threat, and Bahrain has moved the cases into the legal process. No outlet in the provided text includes responses from Iran, the IRGC, or the accused.
