Maan al Sanea faces criminal charges in Bahrain - The National

Maan al Sanea, the head of the Saudi conglomerate the Saad Group, faces five criminal charges in Bahrain relating to his role in the events that led to the collapse of two banks in the kingdom nearly two years ago.

Mr al Sanea, who has consistently denied all allegations against him in the long-running affair, is named as first defendant on a list of 15 executives in documents filed in a Bahraini court by the kingdom's public prosecutor.

The charges were the subject of a brief hearing in the lower criminal court in Manama last month, but this is the first time the details have emerged. The National has seen a copy of the charge sheet.
