"Fahd Al-Gabbaa left the Kingdom on Thursday, Ramadan 8, from Riyadh to Manama on Gulf Air flight number 170," stated the interior ministry adding that "contact has been made with Bahrain to find out if there is more information on what Al-Gabbaa had done while he was in Manama," noting that there was no record of him traveling in the past.
