Bahrain Mirror: The High Criminal Court in Bahrain decided to renew the detention of unionist who has close ties to the government, Ali Al-Binali, for 10 additional days on charges of fraud, by deceiving citizens and selling them gold bullion fringes for costs that are not commensurate with their market value.
Two citizens filed complaints accusing the unionist of selling gold bars in exchange for debt securities ranging from 10,000 to 15,000 dinars, as they later discovered that they were worth only 1,000 to 2,000 dinars. They said that when they tried to discuss the issue with him, he demanded that they pay the sums they had signed, otherwise he would go to the court with their debt securities.
More complaints are expected to be submitted against Al-Binali by the citizens, whom he sold electronic devices for very costly prices and who signed debt securities not worth the value of the products they purchased, including a woman who bought three phones for six thousand dinars and another man who bought a computer and then found out that he signed a debt bond for five thousand dinars.
