Yesterday afternoon, the police in Marrakech, Morocco arrested a 59-year-old Bahraini man after Bahraini authorities issued an international arrest warrant for him due to financial crimes. The arrest was made following a request from the Arab Communication Division in Manama, which had put out the international notice to capture him.

The Bahraini man is accused of writing large checks without having enough funds to cover them

After his arrest, he was put in provisional detention by the Moroccan public prosecutor’s office. This is part of the process for his potential extradition, which will follow Moroccan legal procedures.

Financial fraud is a serious crime in the Kingdom

Any kind of financial fraud is taken very seriously and is subject to strict legal consequences. The Bahraini legal system has placed serious measures in place to combat financial crimes, including various forms of fraud such as issuing bad checks, embezzlement, and other deceitful financial activities. Under Bahraini law, individuals involved in money fraud can face severe penalties.
