Bahrain: Deported Expat Caught Re-entering with Friend’s Passport

An expat woman, who was earlier deported from the Kingdom after being convicted in a prostitution case and was caught after re-entering Bahrain two months later using her friend’s passport is now facing trial before the First High Criminal Court.

According to the details of the case, she confessed to her crime and told the interrogators that she was deported in September in 2018 because of her involvement in a prostitution case.

Moreover, she said in her statements that in December of the same year, she stole a passport from her friend while they were staying in a GCC country and used it to enter Bahrain again, justifying her action for the fact that she wants to stay with her boyfriend, a GCC national, who is residing in Bahrain.
