False data for Tamkeen support: many face trial

Trade Arabia11-06-2025
Bahrain's Public Prosecution has referred a number of Bahraini defendants to trial for submitting false data online to the Social Insurance Organization (SIO) and the Labour Fund (Tamkeen), and forging private documents to illegally obtain over BD230,000 from both entities.
This came as a result of Tamkeen's ongoing collaboration with relevant authorities to monitor and report misuse of its support programmes, said a statement.
The Financial Crimes and Money Laundering Prosecution directorate received reports from Tamkeen and the SIO regarding the use of fake documents submitted online to illegally obtain funds for the purpose of employee wage support, it said.
Tamkeen commended the collaborative efforts and the prompt action of the relevant government authorities in reporting suspected cases diligently. Tamkeen also stressed that all cases with an element of criminal suspicion such as ghost employment, wage manipulation, and falsifying of documents, and others, should be referred to the relevant authorities to take necessary legal action. – TradeArabia News Service

Bahrain: Man Held Over Indecent Video Posted Online

A man has been taken into custody after prosecutors said he posted a video on social media showing behaviour offensive to public decency and human dignity. The Public Prosecution received a report from the Cybercrime Directorate at the Ministry of Interior's General Directorate for Combating Corruption, Economic and Electronic Security. The footage, they said, showed the suspect engaging in conduct contrary to the values of Bahraini society. He was arrested on orders from the prosecution, brought in for questioning, and shown the video. The suspect admitted to sharing the clip, saying he had hoped to receive money from followers on his account. He remains in detention as investigations continue. The Chief of the Cybercrime Prosecution remarked that such conduct runs against public order and morals and may lead to legal consequences.

One Rescued, One Dead In Diving Tragedy Near King Fahd Causeway

A wide-scale search and rescue operation ended in both relief and heartbreak after two Bahraini citizens went missing at sea during a diving trip near the King Fahd Causeway. The two men set out on a diving trip aboard a small boat in the Sanni marine area around 1:30 PM on Tuesday. Concern arose when they failed to return, and a missing persons report was filed at approximately 2:30 AM on Wednesday. Search and rescue teams from both Bahrain and Saudi Arabia were immediately mobilized. After several hours of intensive efforts, one of the divers, Aziz Naseeb, was found alive. He had spent many hours stranded in the water and was rushed to hospital for treatment. Thankfully, his condition is reported as stable. Tragically, the body of the second diver, Mohammed Ismail, 36, was recovered from the sea. Authorities confirmed his death and notified the Public Prosecution, which is now handling legal procedures related to the incident. The Ministry of Interior posted on its official account on platform X (formerly Twitter):'With the support of the Police Aviation and following a report from the operations room… the body of a 36-year-old diver was retrieved after he passed away while diving near the King Fahd Causeway.' Authorities continue to investigate the incident to understand its circumstances. They have urged all citizens and residents to strictly follow safety measures when planning sea trips — especially for diving and fishing — and to notify the relevant authorities in advance.
