A Bahraini, originally sentenced in absentia to three years in prison and fined BD3,000 for allegedly fraudulently withdrawing BD2,490 from a businessman’s bank account, will learn his fate at the High Criminal Court following a retrial.
The 36-year-old has been accused of exploiting the absence of the company owner by obtaining a replacement SIM card in his name that enabled him to gain access to an electronic payment app and reach into his bank account to withdraw BD2,490 .
