Brother Arrested While Bailing Out Sibling

A man who was posting bond for his brother at the South Windsor police station was arrested when police realized that there was a warrant for his arrest.

Police made the first arrest when they stopped a vehicle on John Fitch Boulevard for a violation around noon on Monday.

Bashdar Raouf, 33, of Hartford, was charged with failure to appear in the second degree.

When Raouf’s brother, Raidar Raouf, 29, of Hartford, showed up at the police station to post bond, police learned that he was also wanted on a re-arrest warrant, so police charged him with failure to appear in the second degree.

Bashdar Raouf was released on a $250 cash bond and Raidar Raouf was released on $2,500 cash bond.

Both are due in Manchester Superior Court on Feb. 11.
