Travel ban on ‘royals' lifted
KUWAIT CITY, July 8: The Ministers Court has lifted the travel ban imposed on Sheikh Ahmad Al-Fahad and Sheikh Mubarak Al-Hamoud -- defendants in the high-profile 'secret expenses' case related to the Ministry of Defense. The court took this decision after the defendants paid the amounts owed in the case. The decision was announced in a court session held to review a request submitted by the defense lawyer. The defendants affirmed their commitment to fulfill their financial obligations, prompting the court to conclude that the legal grounds for maintaining the travel ban no longer exist. The case has undergone successive developments, as it continues to examine the facts. Court proceedings have been adjourned until Sept 8, when some defense witnesses are scheduled to be summoned for testimony and pleadings. The decision to lift the travel ban was taken amid the ongoing trial being heard by the Ministers Court -- the court in charge of adjudicating cases in which the accused hold high positions, under Law No. 88/1995 on the trial of ministers
