A man who illegally transported pilgrims to Haj last year without proper licences or authorisation has been fined BD10,000 by the Lower Criminal Court, the Public Prosecution has announced.
The accused was arrested after the authorities received a report from the Justice, Islamic Affairs and Waqf Ministry, who last year were following up on Haj-related affairs, including investigations into two Bahraini pilgrims who died while performing their religious duty .
