<p>Thousands of Shiite protesters in Bahrain have formed a huge human chain around the capital, Manama, as their campaign to loosen the Sunni monarchy&#8217;s grip on power in the strategic Gulf nation enters its third week. </p>
<p>No police were in sight as protesters &#8211; men and women &#8211; held hands to encircle Manama, where Bahrain&#8217;s Shiite majority has been leading daily demonstrations to end what they say are discriminatory policies and political persecution.</p>
<p>Tensions have been high in the Gulf kingdom, the host of the US Navy&#8217;s 5th Fleet, since a street battle between Sunnis and Shiites on Thursday left at least a dozen people injured.</p>
<p>Organisers say some members of the Sunni minority joined Saturday&#8217;s event.</p>
