Five minutes in court mark milestone in tortuous Saudi legal saga - The National

There isn't much "normal" business going on in Bahrain at the moment, but one event went off, more or less as planned, in downtown Manama on Monday.

As the rest of the city was recovering from its worst day of violence for many weeks, a small gathering took place in the lower criminal court on the fringe of the area controlled by protesters.

Perhaps the gathering was smaller than it would have been in other circumstances. Apart from a judge, a smattering of court officials and a lawyer, there was hardly anybody present to witness the first criminal hearing in the long-running saga of al Gosaibi versus al Sanea.
