Bin Arshid added in a statement to Ikhwanweb that despite the government’s continuous attacks against Islamists, this win confirms the failure of the regime’s crackdown that started with arresting the IAF’s MPs Dr. Mohamed Abu Fares and Ali Abu Sokkar and the attack on Islamic charity center society .
