Nine men formed cell to fund terrorism

Nine Bahraini men formed a cell to collect money purposely to fund terrorist groups, the High Criminal Court heard. The defendants landed in the police net after investigations uncovered that the first defendant was a member of a dissolved society that was raising funds and later distributing them to terrorists.

And he was helped by some of his co-suspects. The first defendant was arrested in a secret operation and he revealed he gave BD30-BD60 to the family of the fourth defendant and BD300 to the family of the ninth defendant, both of whom were wanted in connection with security cases.

The second defendant confirmed to prosecutors that he was wanted to serve 11 year’s imprisonment and he requested money from the first defendant.
