The man, who led a human trafficking gang of nine, and four other members including three women, were jailed for seven years each for human trafficking, the Bahraini criminal court has ruled. The convicts used money laundering as a means to cover up prostitution, the higher court ruled. Initially, the money laundering was not discovered and the convicts only faced prostitution charges.
