Bahraini man loses appeal in terror case

A Bahraini man accused of attempting to travel abroad to join a terrorist organisation has had his three years’ imprisonment upheld after losing his appeal.

The defendant was arrested while trying to travel to Oman using a passport that doesn’t belong to him. And later it was learned that he was trying to flee to Turkey in order to join the Islamic State in Syria.

The 29-year-old allegedly manipulated his appearance to fit the picture attached with the passport in an effort to mislead the customs officers.
