Abu Dhabi: The trial of four suspects (three Somali, one Sudanese) accused of  belonging to a Jihadist organisation has been postponed to Monday, March 19, until lawyers are provided to defend them.

"Lawyers have refused to defend the suspects during Monday session, so the trial has been postponed to next Monday," an official at the Supreme Federal Court told Gulf News.

The suspects were accused of involving in holding unauthorised activities in the UAE that financially support the movement in Somalia and other African countries. The court will provide lawyers and study the case.
