Bahrain’s concerned authorities informed Akhbar Al Khaleej Chairman and Editor-in-Chief Anwar Abdulrahman late last night that the daily newspaper has been suspended until further notice for reasons related to the Press law.

The suspension order was received a few minutes before the newspaper went to Press.

Mr Abdulrahman was holding negotiations with the concerned authorities over the issue early this morning.
