The Court of Cassation in October 2025 upheld a 10-year prison sentence and BHD5,000 fine for a man convicted over electronic shishas containing cannabis after customs officers at the King Fahd Causeway found the devices and containers holding suspected CBD. Two co-defendants received one year and BHD1,000 each. The case began in 2024 and the suspected CBD liquid was prosecuted as cannabis.[1]
