'Bahrain begins trial of hundreds'

Opposition groups in Bahrain say hundreds of people are put on trial in the country, but the ruling regime claims that it has begun trials for 22 people over their role in anti-regime demonstrations.
The defendants faced charges ranging from calling for regime change, spreading photos to hurt the country's reputation, and carrying swords.

Activists also said on Tuesday that Bahrain's Polytechnic University has dismissed around 47 students over political statements they had posted on Twitter and Facebook.
