An Arab woman has informed the Public Prosecution that her husband had forced her to hide drugs under her clothes to smuggle them into the Kingdom of Bahrain, the High Criminal Court heard.
The pair were captured on the Bahraini side of the King Fahad Causeway attempting to enter Bahrain with 350 grams of hashish hidden with the woman.
Her nervousness exposed her after police officers unsuccessfully searched her husband, although a tip-off was sent to the customs officials that the man will arrive with drugs.
The woman was searched by the police and the drugs were recovered from her. “I don’t know what was inside the bag. He ordered me to hide it under my clothes. When I refused, he shouted at me,” the woman told prosecutors.
