A man charged with drugs possession who was at an Al-Aflaj Court office to sign his confession succeeded in distracting the attention of his escort and promptly sped off a free man. The accused had been caught by police patrols in possession of hashish, and after being handled by the anti-drugs squad was then taken to the court to sign his confessions as per the law. The accused's flight from the very center of justice did not last long, however. “We caught him near a petrol station a short while later by tracing calls from his mobile phone,” a source said.
