9 | Student Mustafa earned the honors with a GPA of 99 % and since he is a Shia he was granted a scholarship to prison in Bahrain | Nahazo voninahitra amin'ny Naoty GPA 99% i Mustafa ary satria Shiita izy, dia nahazo vatsim-pianarana ho any am-ponjan'i Bahrain |
10 | On August 15, 2013, Mustafa, who is now 18, was walking out of his grandfather's house in Nuwaidrat when he was stopped by security patrol. | Tamin'ny 15 Aogositra 2013, nandehandeha tao ivelan'ny tranon'ny raibeny ao Nuwaidrat i Mustafa izay efa feno 18 taona ankehitriny raha nosakanan'ny polisy mpanao fisafoana. |
11 | He was charged with illegal gathering and initially sentenced to six months. | Voampanga ho nanao fivoriana tsy ara-dalàna izy ary nahazo sazy enim-bolana an-tranomaizina tany am-boalohany. |
12 | The court of appeal later reduced the sentence to three months and released him on bail 24 days later. | Nahenan'ny fitsarana ambony ho telo volana avy eo ny sazy ary navotsotra izy 24 andro taty aoriana rehefa nandoa onitra hivoahana vonjimaika. |
13 | Mustafa's family told Al Wasat daily newspaper, that his lawyer Mohammed Al-Muttawa attempted several times to convince authorities to reduce the charges to a fine, so he would be able to continue his education, but failed. | Nilaza tamin'ny gazety mpivoaka isan'andro Al Wasat ny fianakavian'i Mustafa fa niezaka hatrany nandresy lahatra ny manampahefana mba hampihena ny sazy ho onitra ny mpisolovavany, Mohammed Al-Muttawa mba ahafahany hanohy ny fianarany, saingy tsy nahomby. |
14 | His high school certificates show outstanding performance in all subjects over three years with no marks less than 93. 5% out of 100%. | Mampiseho zava-bita goavana tamin'ny taranja rehetra nandritra ny telo taona mahery ny mari-pahaizany tany amin'ny lisea izay tsy ahitana naoty latsaky ny 93,5% amin'ny 100%. |
15 | The photographs below details Mustafa's grades. | |
16 | He decided to turn himself in on July 10 to complete the remaining time of his sentence (two months and six days) during the summer holidays, expecting to be released on September 16. In a letter he wrote before he entered prison, he said: “In prison I spend my night and day … a product of my success and academic excellence.” | Nanapa-kevitra hitolo-batana izy tamin'ny 10 Jolay mba hamita ny ambin'ny saziny (roa volana sy enina andro) nandritra ny vakansy asara, nanantena ho avotsotra amin'ny 16 Septambra. Tamin'ny taratasy nosoratany talohan'ny nidirany am-ponja, nilaza izy hoe: “Mandany ny alina sy ny andro aty am-ponja aho … vokatry ny fahombiazako sy ny fahaizana fianarana.” |
17 | He continued expressing how desperate he felt when he was first arrested, and then the glimpse of hope he regained after being released, explaining he continued to work hard to reach his goal. | Nanohy naneho ny fahakiviana tsapany izy raha nosamborina voalohany, ary avy eo ny tsirim-panantenana tonga taminy rehefa navotsotra izy, manazava fa hiasa mafy hatrany izy mba hanatrarana ny tanjona. |
18 | Yet his dream to become a doctor and serve his country is rewarded with imprisonment. | Eny, nosandaina fampidirana am-ponja ny nofinofiny ho lasa dokotera sy hanompo ny fireneny |

20 | His brother Ali, far left. | Ny rahalahiny Ali no eo ankavia. |
21 | Mustafa's decision to turn himself in was encouraged by his family members, his brother Ali told Global Voices Online, to avoid future complications and the risk to be arrested any minute while he is in the middle of his university studies. | Ny fianakaviany no nandrisika an'i Mustafa mba hitolo-batana, hoy ny rahalahiny Ali tamin'ny Global Voices Online mba hialàna amin'ny olana any aoriana sy ny mety ho fisamborana azy mandritra ny fianarana eny amin'ny onivesite. |
22 | Ali says if his brother hadn't turned himself in he would have faced difficulties going anywhere or passing check points as there is an arrest warrant for him. | Nilaza i Ali fa raha tsy nitono-tena ny rahalahiny dia mety niatrika zava-tsarotra amin'ny alehany rehetra na rehefa mandalo toeram-pisafoana satria misy didy fampisamborana azy. |
23 | Their reasoning was the earlier he went to prison, the earlier he got out and resumed his life. | Ny eritreritry ry zareo dia hoe araka ny idirana mialoha any am-ponja no ivoahany mialoha handraisany an-tanana indray ny fiainany. |
24 | “During high school, Mustafa felt so disappointed and unmotivated. | “Nandritra ny fianarany tamin'ny ambaratonga faharoa, nahatsiaro diso fanantenana sy tsy mavitrika i Mustafa. |
25 | His GPA dropped a few points, but family support helped him get through it. | Nihena isa vitsy ny naotiny tamin'ny GPA, saingy nanampy azy hiarina ny fanohanan'ny fianakaviana. |
26 | He was always at home avoiding to go out so he could complete his high school diploma without interruption or being arrested.” | Ao an-trano foana izy tsy mivoaka mihitsy mba ahafahany mamita ny fianarany ambaratonga faharoa tsy misy fahatapahana na fisamborana . |
27 | Mustafa is not the only one arrested from his family. | Tsy i Mustafa irery no voasambotra tao amin'ny fianakaviany. |
28 | His brother Qasim, also a student, was arrested on January 1, 2012, and is serving a five-year term in jail in the case of “Rayat Alezz”. | Efa nosamborina tamin'ny 1 Janoary 2012 ihany koa ny rahalahiny Qasim, izay mpianatra ihany koa ary nahazo sazy dimy taona an-tranomaizina noho ny raharaha “Rayat Alezz”. |
29 | His father Mohamed Ali is a political activist serving 15 years in jail since March 24, 2011, on charges of “plotting to overthrow the regime”. | Mpikatroka ara-politika ihany koa ny rainy Mohamed Ali izay nahazo sazy 15 taona an-tranomaizina nanomboka tamin'ny 24 Martsa 2011, noho ny fiampangana azy ho “niteti-dratsy hanongana ny fitondrana”. |
30 | He is one of the 13 prominent leaders remaining in prison for their role during Bahrain's popular uprising in February 2011. | Iray amin'ireo mpitarika malaza 13 mbola any am-ponja izy noho ny andraikiny nandritra ny fitroaram-bahoaka malaza tamin'ny Febroary 2011 tao Bahrain. |
31 | Mustafa is now detained at the Dry Dock prison waiting for his brother to update him on his scholarship news, and news of admission to universities abroad, keeping in mind that his mother is the only breadwinner in his family at the moment. | Migadra ao amin'ny fonjan'i Lakavy Maina i Mustafa ankehitriny miandry ny rahalahiny hanome vaovao azy momba ny vatsim-pianarany sy ny fahazoany miditra any amin'ny oniversite ampitan-dranomasina, amin'ny fifantohany ao an-tsaina fa ny reniny no hany mpamelona ny fianakaviany amin'izao fotoana izao. |

33 | He was a candidate for the Crown Prince's International Scholarship Program (CPISP) and reached to the final stages but didn't get it. | Efa kandidà tamin'ny Fandaharan'asa Vatsim-pianarana Iraisam-pirenenan'ny Printsy Handova ny Satro-Boninahitra (CPISP) izy ary tafiditra tamin'ny dingana farany saingy tsy nahazo. |
34 | The scholarship programme serves the vision of the Crown Prince Sheikh Salman bin Hamad Al-Khalifa as it is stated on the programme's website “to develop young Bahrainis from all walks of life to take key positions in Bahrain's public and private sectors in the future.” | Natao hanatontosana ny Vinan'ny Printsy Sheikh Salman Bin Hamad Al-Khalifa ny fandaharana vatsim-pianarana araka ny voalaza ao amin'ny habaky ny fandaharana “mba hampivelatra ny tanora Bahrainita avy amin'ny sarangam-piainana rehetra handray toerana manan-danja amin'ny hoavy eo amin'ny seha-panjakana sy ny tsy miankina.” |
35 | Despite his academic excellence and qualifications, his options are limited, given that should he complete his sentence, he will be released a bit too late for some universities' starting date. | Na dia teo aza ny fahombiazany amin'ny fianarana sy ny fahaizany, voafetra ny safidiny, noho izy tsy maintsy mamita ny saziny, ho tara fanombohana fianarana any amin'ny oniversite sasany izy rehetra havotsotra. |
36 | Mustafa has to look for options he could take after his release in mid September. | Tsy maintsy mitady ny safidy azony alaina aorian'ny famotsorana azy amin'ny tapaky ny volana Septambra i Mustafa |
37 | His brother Ali explained to Global Voices that Mustafa was offered another scholarship by the Ministry of Education, except it was in mechanical engineering, far from general medicine. | Nanazava tamin'ny Global Voices ny rahalahiny Ali fa nahazo vatsim-pianarana iray hafa avy amin'ny Minisiteran'ny Fanabeazana i Mustafa, saingy momba ny injeniera mekanika izany, lavitry ny taranja fitsaboana nokasainy atao. |
38 | “Once he is released, hopefully before he has to complete his sentence, he will try to switch the scholarship to a stipend and use the money towards studying what he wants. | “Raha vao avotsotra izy, izay antenaina mba ho alohan'ny tsy maintsy hamitany hatramin'ny farany ny saziny, dia hiezaka hamadika ny vatsim-pianarana [saran'ny oniversite aloa mivantana any amin'ny oniversite] ho vatsy azony raisina mivantana izy ary hampiasa ny vola amin'ny fianarana izay tiany. |
39 | However, we are worried he will be banned from travel after his release.” | Na izany aza, manahy izahay fa ho raràna tsy hahazo handeha lavitra izy aorian'ny famotsorana azy. “ |
40 | Mustafa is not alone when it comes to what many have described as the “discriminatory process” of distributing scholarships in Bahrain. | Tsy irery i Mustafa araka ny fanoritsoritan'ny maro amin'ny “fombam-panavakavahana” raha ny fizarana vatsim-pianarana ao Bahrain no resahina. |
41 | A heated debate is taking place in Bahrain about the criteria for the selection of scholarship recipients. | Misy ny adihevitra mafana mitranga ao Bahrain mikasika ny fepetra fifantenana izay mpianatra mahazo vatsim-pianarana. |
42 | According to activists and Bahraini citizens, the government's track record suggests discrimination against the Shiite students when granting scholarships, especially those who have expressed opposing views to those of the government. | Araka ny filazan'ny mpikatroka sy ny olom-pirenena Bahrainita, mampiseho fanavakavahana ireo Shiita mpianatra eo amin'ny fanomezana vatsim-pianarana ny tondrozotran'ny governemanta, indrindra hoan'ireo izay maneho fomba fijery manohitra ny governemanta. |
43 | Their views and frustrations were compiled on an active Twitter hashtag in Arabic that translates to “the massacre of scholarships“. | Natambatra tamin'ny diezy mavitrika tao amin'ny Twitter amin'ny teny Arabo midika hoe “ny famonoan'ny vatsim-pianarana” ny fomba fijery sy ny fahasorenan'izy ireo . |
44 | According to the Bahrain Center for Human Rights (BCHR) statistics from February of this year, there are about 400 children in Bahraini prisons being held for politically motivated charges. | Araka ny antotanisan'ny Foibe Misahana ny Zon'Olombelona ao Bahrain (BCHR) tamin'ny Febroary tamin'ity taona ity, ankizy 400 eo ho eo no any am-ponjan'i Bahrain noho ny fiampangana misy ambadika politika. |
45 | Most of them have been subjected to ill treatment and torture. | Iharan'ny fikarakarana ratsy sy ny fampijaliana ny ankamaroan'izy ireo. |
