Passenger fakes heart attack to get into Bahrain
May 17 - Bahraini police are on the look-out for a Gulf Air passenger who faked a heart attack to get into Bahrain.

The man pretended to throw up blood so he was taken to the Salmaniya Medical Complex (SMC) from where he managed to sneak out.
Bangladesh Embassy officials, when contacted, did not anything about the case but said they would help with the investigation.
