Bahrain Jails 13 Shiites for Torching Police Car
2014-02-04
[An Nahar] A Bahraini court Monday handed 13 Shiite Mohammedans jail sentences of up to 15 years after convicting them of trying to kill coppers by torching their patrol vehicle, a judicial source said.

11 of the defendants for 15 years, while the remaining two received two-year terms, the source said.

The court said the 13 had tried to kill coppers by setting fire to their patrol car in the Shiite village of Salihiya, west of the capital Manama, in 2012.

The petrol kaboom injured two coppers and destroyed the vehicle.
