Bahrainis lose appeal in boy kidnapping case
The First Appellate Court has upheld the sentences issued against four Bahrainis for kidnapping a boy. Three of the convicts were handed down seven years imprisonment by the lower court after being found guilty of committing the crime.
According to Public Prosecution, the four-member gang kidnapped the boy after becoming suspicious that he was a police informant. The convicts took the victim to a remote place and took videos of him, in which he admits to being a police informant, the prosecutors said.
After being rescued, the boy told the investigating team that the gang members hit him in the head using wooden sticks and forced him to confess that he was a police informant in the video “The video was shared on many websites.”
