The Public Prosecution Advocate General stated that the High Criminal Court issued its verdict today in the case concerning the illegal collection of funds and the laundering of money obtained through criminal offences.
All the accused in the case, including a religious figure, were given a one year suspended sentence each.

The court also ruled a fine of 100,000 Bahraini Dinars for each and the confiscation of the seized assets related to the case.

The Advocate General pointed out that the Public Prosecution will undertake the legal measures to enforce the verdicts once they are final.

The Public Prosecution will then enforce the rulings, including the confiscation of the seized assets, and will put them under the disposal of the relevant ministry legally tasked with distributing them for charity and humanitarian purposes in the related areas under the supervision of a judicial sharia committee.

The advocate General said the Public Prosecution is currently looking into the verdicts to determine whether it will appeal.
