Closing arguments will be heard on Thursday in the trial of three individuals accused of disclosing state secrets.
The defendants include a senior manager serving at a national petroleum company and another man who is working at a company that provides services to the petroleum firm.
The third accused, an Asian man, was serving as an adviser at the company.
In an unprecedented event at the courts in Bahrain, witnesses, in this case, were examined for seven hours in one of the hearings by the defence and public attorney.
The witnesses took the stand in three hearings before judges at the High Criminal Court decided to adjourn the case until next Thursday to hear the closing arguments.
The trio forged documents issued by a foreign bank to prove financial capacity worth $20 billion to enter tenders in Bahrain.
