Arab Timesa day ago
KUWAIT CITY, July 12: Personnel from Al Waha Police Station have referred two expatriates to the Deportation Center after confirming they had consumed locally brewed alcohol, and they were completely drunk and unable to stand or walk. Both individuals, who hold Domestic Visa (Article 20) residency permits, will be added to the blacklist of individuals banned from re-entering Kuwait.
According to a security source, a Kuwaiti citizen reported the incident to the Ministry of Interior after noticing the two men sitting across from his residence for an extended period at a late hour. Upon approaching them to inquire about their presence, he found them in a highly disoriented and intoxicated state. Although they attempted to flee, they were unable to walk, let alone run.
Public Security officers responded to the report and dispatched a patrol unit to the scene. The two expatriates were apprehended and later admitted to consuming locally produced liquor.

Kuwaiti and Two Gulf Nationals Jailed for Forging Citizenship Documents

KUWAIT CITY, July 13: The Criminal Court, presided over by Judge Mutab Al-Ardi, has sentenced a Kuwaiti citizen and two Gulf nationals to seven years in prison with hard labor, following their conviction in a major citizenship fraud case spanning three decades. The court also ordered the defendants to return all illegally obtained funds and imposed a financial penalty exceeding KD 473,000. According to the charges brought by the Public Prosecution, the three individuals were found guilty of forging key documents (including a Kuwaiti citizenship certificate, birth certificate, and debit card) between 1994 and 2024, with the intent of unlawfully acquiring financial and state benefits reserved for Kuwaiti nationals. In its verdict, the court affirmed its confidence in the findings of the officer from the Nationality and Passports Investigation Department, whose confidential inquiry uncovered a scheme involving all three accused. The investigation revealed that the first defendant, a Kuwaiti citizen, colluded with the second defendant, a Gulf national, to falsely register the third defendant (the son of the second) as his own to add him to his citizenship file. Based on this fraudulent claim, the first defendant submitted falsified information to the General Directorate of Nationality and Travel Documents, which enabled the third defendant to unlawfully obtain a Kuwaiti civil ID, passport, and citizenship certificate. The court ruled that all three defendants be held equally responsible, sentencing each to seven years of imprisonment with hard labor, in addition to full restitution and a substantial financial fine. The case is regarded as one of the more significant rulings in recent years involving citizenship fraud and misappropriation of state resources.

Kuwaiti Man Wanted in Four Financial Cases Apprehended After Ambush

KUWAIT CITY, July 13: The Capital Investigation Department successfully ended the evasion of a Kuwaiti citizen wanted in connection with four financial cases involving amounts exceeding one million Kuwaiti dinars. The suspect was arrested following a carefully planned operation that prevented any possibility of resistance. Authorities devised a strategic ambush where one of the department's patrol vehicles deliberately positioned itself behind the wanted individual's car, simulating a traffic delay. When the suspect stepped out of his vehicle (apparently to assist or investigate) the officers swiftly took him into custody and transferred him to the Investigation Department. According to a security source, the Capital Investigations Department had received intelligence that the wanted citizen was present at a diwaniya (social gathering place) in Farwaniya Governorate, accompanied by a relative. Acting promptly on this information, the department dispatched a specialized team to the location. The team tracked the suspect's vehicle and executed the arrest seamlessly without confrontation. The detainee was subsequently referred to the General Department for Implementation to proceed with the ongoing legal process. This successful operation highlights the proactive measures and coordination by Kuwait's law enforcement agencies in apprehending fugitives involved in significant financial crimes.
