Bahrain police confiscate
 weapons, ammunition
2013-08-04
Bahrain police have confiscated weapons and ammunition from a warehouse in Bilad Al Qadeem.

The spokesperson of the Capital Governorate Police said the warehouse was discovered on Friday morning by the police while patrolling the area. He said that police forces confiscated weapons and tools used in committing 'terrorist' acts. He pointed out that the seized items included two locally-made bombs, a mock bomb, eight locally made rifles with 20 bullets, three locally made 'gas weapons,' and four shots for them, a number of Molotov cocktails ready to be used ( about 150), in addition to a number of iron skewers.

He said the required legal measures had been taken, and the Public Prosecution was informed of the incident, highlighting that investigation was intensified to determine the identity of those involved in the terrorist act.

The warehouse wasn't the first one to be discovered by the police as most of the found ones were located in old houses in disturbed areas in Bahrain. Some of the weapons were hidden under the ground.
