After Compliments
I am writing to inform you that I have received
information to the effect that if any person of our
subjects goes to Bahrain on business and return, and
when any person in Bahrain files a suit or a claim
against him during his stay in Bahrain, he is appre
hended by you and his return to his country delayed
during the period of the hearing of the case in Bahrain.
You are aware that by the Grace of God and endeavour
of His Majesty the King, there exists sufficient
number of law Courts and Customary Courts in our
country. As a practice, the case starts in the country
of the defendant. Many claims and suits filed by
people of Bahrain against our subjects have been
settled by us according to justice and equity. By the
Grace of God not a single person received injustice
in our hands. On receiving the information, I did
not like to raise the matter to His Majesty the King
but considered it advisa/ble to communicate to you.
Under the circumstances, God willing, if any
person 1ms a cla. im, big or small, aga.inst any person
from ainong our subjects, he will come to us direct or
through you according to the prevalent custom between
you and us. You will write to us about the matter and
we in return will inform you what actually happens.
The ca,se will either be referred to the Shara* or the
Customary Courts on its merits, and if a person has a
proved claim and the defendant has no accepta/ble excuse,
the claim will*at once be paid to the plaintiff, I
hope you will pay your kind attention to this master
and X- c believe you will do,
