Terrorist cell arrested in Bahrain

Manama : Head of the Military Judiciary Brigadier Dr. Yusuf Rashid Flaifel said the Bahrain Defence Force (BDF)'s anti-terrorism security agencies after gathering information, research, investigation and monitoring, in a preemptive step have arrested members of a terrorist cell who committed several crimes against the BDF.

The case was referred to the High Military Court to decide the date for suspects' trial after the Military Prosecution completed its investigations. The suspects will be granted all applicable legal sureties according to the provisions of the law.

Law 12/2017 for amendment of the Military Judicial Law 2002 stipulates that the "Military Judiciary of the BDF has jurisdiction to look into any of the crimes committed by BDF personnel or inflicted upon BDF funds and properties, crimes affecting the State’s internal or external security, or the crimes stipulated in the Law for Protection of the Society against Terrorist Crimes, and other terrorism-connected crimes."
