Bahrain Mirror: During the appeals session of former Interior Ministry colonel Adel Flaifel, who is sentenced to 10 years in prison over the possession of arms and ammunitions, on Tuesday (June 14, 2016), the Public Prosecution submitted a letter to the court stating that there is a new case raised against Flaifel after the authorities seized 40 Kalashnikovs and 14,792 bullets.  

The high court of Appeals, presided over by judge Mohammad bin Ali Al Khalifa and Abdullah Mohammad Hassan as a secretariat, adjourned the case of Flaifel alongside others until October 27, 2016. Flaifel (first suspect) confessed during interrogations of acquiring the seized arms and ammunition without a license from the Ministry of Interior and distributing them among the other suspects for their protection.

After interrogating the second to the seventh defendant, they confessed that they acquired arms without a license. Meanwhile, the eighth defendant said that he transferred some weapons (20 different arms) from Flailfel's home to his and returned them after a while. It was noted that all the weapons are illegal to acquire without a license from the interior ministry. The interrogations showed that the eighth defendant worked for Flaifel for a 1200 BD monthly salary and the remaining defendants for 450 BD.
