Tariq Al Hassan clarifies on convict
Chief of Public Security Major-General Tariq Al Hassan yesterday said that security authorities in Bahrain had noted the five-year sentence handed down to Abdul Raoof Al Shayeb by the UK courts. He also clarified that Al Shayeb had been convicted of similar terrorist-related offences in Bahrain.
The Chief of Public Security pointed to two cases where Al Shayeb was found guilty of serious terrorist offences within Bahrain, including a 2011 terrorism case in which he received a life sentence, and his involvement in a bombing in the Riffa area of Bahrain, for which he received a 13-year sentence.
