Criminal Court Acquitted Two Inmates Of Smuggling Ten Bags Of Hashish
The Criminal Court acquitted two inmates of Central Prison — an Iraqi and an Egyptian — who were accused of smuggling ten bags containing 40 pieces of hashish into the country via the Arabian Gulf waters. According to the testimony of the arresting officer, he received a call from an unknown person who requested him to pick-up the contraband which was hidden at a certain location in the seabed of the Arabian Gulf waters. Based on the request, the officer went to an island — Ouha Island along with some other officers. After receiving the exact location of the contraband and retrieving it, he was asked to go to Shaab area to meet someone to whom he has to handover the contraband and receive undisclosed amount of cash. During the transaction, other officers appeared and arrested the “unknown caller”, who later revealed that the contraband were for two inmates of the Central Prison. Representing one of the inmates was Lawyer Eman Haidar, who insisted that the whole scenario is difficult to even imagine let alone believe that it had happened, stressing that the prosecution did not present any substantial evidences to link her client with the contraband.
