CHARGES against three men accused of robbery and false imprisonment in Sark have been dropped.
Ali Abbas Ahmad, Aal E Ahmad Hussain and Omar Sharif, all aged 36 and from Slough, first appeared in Guernsey Magistrate’s Court in September.
The men were accused of the false imprisonment of a couple living in the island and of robbing them of $2,400, and of items including four mobile phones, a laptop and a hard drive.
They did not enter a plea and were allowed to return to the UK on bail.
The case was due to be committed to the Royal Court on 14 December. However, prosecutors this week said that pursuing the case was no longer in the public interest, and all charges against the men were dropped.
