Terror group abettor gets life sentence

The High Criminal Court yesterday issued a life sentence to a Bahraini convicted of possessing contraband weapons and ammunition for terrorist purposes and abetting fugitives who had committed crimes punishable by death or incarceration. The court also fined him BD500 and ordered to revoke his nationality, said Terror Crime Chief Procecutor Ahmed Al Hammadi.

Investigators found that the defendant concealed several fugitives who were members of an armed terrorist group that killed a policeman and facilitated the escape of inmates in the Jau reformatory’s jailbreak.
