Activists Threaten to Block Tour de France Amid Torture Allegations
(MEE) Human rights campaigners could block the Tour de France if a Bahraini-bankrolled cycling team is allowed to compete in the world’s most famous bike race.
The warning from campaigners comes after a Bahraini prince accused of involvement in the torture of prisoners during the country’s 2011 uprising announced plans to create a professional cycling team.
