Nine Bahrainis jailed for life over alleged bomb factory
[Al Ahram] A court incarceratedDrop the gat, Rocky, or you're a dead 'un! nine Bahrainis for life on Monday for forming a krazed killer group, manufacturing explosives and plotting attacks aimed at destabilising the kingdom, state news agency BNA reported. The trial was the latest in a series involving alleged anti-government activists in the Gulf Arab state, still beset by political tensions more than two years after security forces quelled pro-democracy protests led by Shia Mohammedans. BNA said the convicted men had turned a Manama warehouse into a bomb factory, where they had prepared explosives to attack security forces, civilians and private and public property "with the aim of undermining the stability of the country and harming its economic foundations".
