Bahraini human rights activist Ali Mushaima was taken to hospital on Thursday from outside Bahrain's embassy in London where he had been camped for a month in protest at his father's prison conditions.

Ali Mushaima, 35, was on a hunger strike, which he began after his imprisoned 70- year-old father Hassan Mushaima was denied proper medical care for his cancer. He has vowed to continue his protest until the rights of his father, who is serving a life sentence in a Bahraini prison for leading pro-democratic protests in 2011, are restored.
