Bahraini female detainee, Hadeer Abadi, reportedly had her detention extended by an additional 30 days for a fourth consecutive time on Thursday.
Her prolonged incarceration comes despite claims by activists that the state is yet to formally charge Abadi with any wrongdoing.
The 25-year-old was detained after being summoned for questioning in January of this year.
Shortly after her arrest, Bahraini rights campaigner Enas Oun reported that Abadi is being detained without proper cause.
Meanwhile, her family has complained that they have not been allowed to visit Abadi since her arrest.
