Asian dealer gets 10 years for drug trafficking

The Court of Cassation sentenced an Asian distributor to 10 years in prison for drug trafficking-related cases, issuing a final ruling for his absence from the country after serving the sentence, along with permanent deportation. The General Directorate of Narcotics Control had reported information regarding the defendants' possession of drugs for sale and promotion, leading to their arrest at one of their homes. During the search, narcotic substances, cash amounts, and an account book detailing trafficking operations were found. It was revealed that the defendants received smuggled quantities of drugs from an external network, which they divided and stored for distribution within Bahrain in exchange for commissions. The first defendant admitted to using drugs himself, confirming that the confiscated money belonged to him, and that he was receiving substances from an unknown source abroad, which he then divided and distributed via mail. The second defendant affirmed that he assisted the first in distributing and promoting drugs and that he was addicted to methamphetamine. Additionally, a woman was found at the same house abusing drugs. The case showed that the account book and phones contained evidence of sales and distribution operations, with the defendants' statements supporting their involvement in an international drug smuggling and trafficking network.
