Last Sunday, Manama called on Qatar to release Sami, who had been arrested along with another citizen.

Qatar also released a Bahraini sailor who was arrested last December, according to the Bahraini Interior Ministry statement.

Al Haddad was crowned Bahraini champion in bodybuilding for several years.
