JAKARTA - At least five people were sentenced to life imprisonment in Bahrain for being spies for the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps of Iran (IRGC).
"The crime of communicating with a foreign entity hostile to the Kingdom of Bahrain is considered one of the most serious crimes affecting national security," said a statement from the Bahrain Public Prosecutor's Office, quoted by The Telegraph, Tuesday, April 28.
The Bahrain Public Prosecution said the five defendants were found guilty of planning "terrorist and hostile acts" for the IRGC in exchange for money.
From this case, previously Bahraini law enforcement arrested six people with details of four Bahraini citizens and two Afghans. However, one person was released allegedly because he was not related.
