A source told Al-Anbaa daily that the prosecution charged six citizens, a bedoon and a Syrian of stealing two motorcycles and other belongings of two citizens with the intention of keeping them to themselves. The source said the case began when the suspects raided the apartments of the two citizens in Salmiya armed with a warrant following information that the two had weapons and drugs, and they were detained.
