Three jailed in bomb hoax case

The High Criminal Court has sentenced three men to three years in prison each on grounds of a bomb hoax. The defendants are said to have planted a fake bomb in Sanabis, where they made two paper boxes and connected them to a Wi-Fi device.

The trio caused panic in the area with their act, but bomb experts announced later that the device was only a fake bomb.

They have been arrested after police investigations established their involvement with the incident, which occurred on November 7, 2014.
