Bahraini arrested carrying hashish, 133 narcotic pills

A Bahraini man, aged 28, was arrested in possession of 133 narcotic pills, according to court files.

The defendant was arrested during a police operation in which he was spotted in an abnormal state.

Police officers said that the defendant was walking in a suspicious manner. “He dropped a glass box he was holding after seeing us approaching him,” a cop told prosecutors.

He added that when his colleagues picked it up, it turned out that it contained more than 133 narcotic pills as well as hashish.

The 28-year-old was put on trial before the High Criminal Court after he was tested positive for different types of drugs.

He was charged with consuming drugs.
