Bahrain Delays Protester Retrials As 2 Hospitalized 
----------------------------------------------------


 
A Bahraini court opened the retrial of 13 jailed protest leaders on
Tuesday, but then quickly adjourned after two of the defendants were too
ill to attend. At least one of the two, Abdulhadi al-Khawaja, has been
on a hunger strike for three months.
