Prosecution witnesses will be heard on September 15 in the trial of a Thai woman accused of drug peddling. On a tip-off that she was selling drugs in the area of Manama, the police arrested her. The police assigned an under agent to nab her red-handed, and a sting operation was designed to achieve it.
The officer in plain clothes contacted the woman and requested BD100 of shabu and agreed to meet her in Hoora on February 21.
The defendant completed the transaction and police followed her to her apartment, which was raided by policewomen, who found four sachets of shabu inside a table. The defendant, however, refused to admit to selling drugs, but admitted to consumption. She claimed that she was requested by a friend to go and meet the under agent officer to buy drugs from him.
But her claims were refuted because police caught her in possession of the money, which was given to her by the officer during the transaction.
