The Ministry of Interior announced that the General Directorate of Criminal Investigation and Forensic Science has arrested three persons for forming a terrorist cell affiliated with the Lebanese Hezbollah terrorist group.
The suspects coordinated with terrorist elements abroad and sought to engage in espionage with them in a manner intended to undermine the sovereignty of the state, spread fear and panic among citizens and residents, and risk the security and safety of the country.
Those arrested are:
Ahmed Ahmed Hussain Madan, 24
Hassan Abdulameer Ashoor, 22
Muntadhar Abdulmohsen Ali Madan, 29
The arrestees’ statements revealed that during their travels to Lebanon, they received weapons training after meeting with members of the Lebanese Hezbollah terrorist group. They also sent photos and information about the repercussions of the Iranian aggression against Bahrain.
They collected funds under the guise of charitable work, transferring them to support the activities of Hezbollah in Lebanon, in preparation for being tasked by its leaders with carrying out terrorist plots and acts in Bahrain.
The General Directorate of Criminal Investigation and Forensic Science stated that the necessary legal procedures had been finalised and that the arrestees had been referred to the Public Prosecution.
