Robbery case: Witnesses to testify on March 21
Manama : Witnesses in the trial of two men accused on grounds of robbery will testify on March 21.
The duo is implicated with stealing an air conditioning unit, as per the court files.
The device was robbed from a house in Isa Town, where Asian labourers were living in. It is said that the two accused sold the equipment to a scrap store for BD18 by using a fake ID.
Investigations then uncovered the identity of the two defendants, but the first suspect, aged 37, denied his involvement in the robbery.
He told prosecutors that he was asked by his co-defendant to help him transport the unit to a repair shop. He, however, admitted to receiving BD9 from him after dropping the unit to the scrap store.
The defendants had earlier appeared before the High Criminal Court, where they pleaded not guilty to theft and fraud charges.
