Al-Arabi submits legal complaint against Hamdan to the Public Prosecution

Arab Times3 days ago
KUWAIT CITY, July 10: The dispute between Al-Arabi Club and its player Hassan Hamdan has escalated after the 24-year-old international forward reportedly signed an agreement to join Al-Ahli Jordan for the new season. In response, Al-Arabi's board of directors announced they have filed an official complaint with the Public Prosecution accusing Hamdan of forgery, fraud, and deception.
Al-Arabi asserts that Hamdan remains under a valid five-year contract with the club. Meanwhile, Al-Ahli Jordan requested its international transfer certificate from FIFA, which was granted via the Kuwaiti Football Association by official regulations.
The club warned that this "escalation" could severely jeopardize Hamdan's professional career.
In a statement issued recently, Al-Arabi emphasized its commitment to protecting the club's legacy and its loyal fan base. The club stated, 'Our silence throughout this period was not due to weakness or fear, but to avoid unnecessary disputes that harm Kuwaiti sport. However, following the serious false accusations aimed at tarnishing our reputation, we are compelled to take legal action to defend the club's name and dignity.'
The statement continued, 'We have officially filed a complaint with the Public Prosecution against the player, supported by a signed contract bearing his handwriting, signature, and fingerprint, which will be presented as evidence.'
Al-Arabi stressed that it will hold accountable anyone involved in damaging the club, declaring, 'Al-Arabi is more than a sports club—it is an institution built on education, ethics, and values. We will continue to safeguard it against all attempts to distort its image.'

Kuwaiti Denies Intent to Burn Victim in Boat Dispute

KUWAIT CITY, July 12: Hawally detectives have referred a case involving alleged threats and attempted arson to the Public Prosecution after both parties maintained their conflicting accounts during the investigation. According to case details, classified as a misdemeanor, a Kuwaiti citizen born in 1989 filed a complaint on May 27, accusing another Kuwaiti citizen, born in 1970, of attempting to set him and a boat on fire. The plaintiff claimed the defendant poured gasoline on the boat—and on him—before trying to ignite it. However, during questioning, the defendant admitted to pouring gasoline but denied any intent to harm. He stated that his purpose was merely to clean the boat, not to set it ablaze. A security source noted that the detectives' report supported the defendant's version of events, concluding there was no clear evidence of intent to burn the victim or the vessel.

Committee reviews new draft law regulating humanitarian work

Committee reviews new draft law regulating humanitarian work Interior Minister chairs sixth meeting of Humanitarian and Charitable Work Committee KUWAIT: First Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Interior Sheikh Fahad Al-Yousef Saud Al-Sabah chaired the sixth meeting of the Committee for Regulating Humanitarian and Charitable Work on Thursday. The meeting, attended by representatives from various government agencies, focused on reviewing a draft law to regulate humanitarian work in the country. According to a statement by the Ministry of Interior, the proposed law is part of Kuwait's ongoing efforts 'to enhance the efficiency of humanitarian and charitable work and organize it according to the highest international standards.' The committee emphasized that the draft law aims to modernize the legal framework governing humanitarian and charitable activities in Kuwait. It is designed to 'promote governance and ensure the highest levels of transparency and effectiveness,' the statement said. 'These efforts reflect Kuwait's commitment to supporting and developing humanitarian and charitable initiatives,' the committee noted, 'in a way that achieves the desired positive impact and supports beneficiary communities both locally and internationally.' The meeting comes amid broader efforts by the Kuwaiti government to safeguard the country's global reputation as a leader in humanitarian aid, while ensuring accountability and trust in the charitable sector. On June 22, Kuwait introduced a new bylaw regulating charitable foundations (mabarat), requiring official licensing, security clearances, and a minimum of 10 Kuwaiti founders with clean legal records and a KD 10,000 deposit. Foundations are prohibited from fundraising or conducting any charitable activities without prior written approval from the Ministry of Social Affairs. The law also grants the ministry full oversight powers, sets clear conditions for dissolution, and imposes penalties for non-compliance or financial misconduct. The government released another set of regulations the same month, specifically targeting charitable associations' fundraising activities. The rules govern how donations are collected, managed, and reported. They focus on controlling the use of fundraising links, overseeing contracts with marketing firms and influencers involved in promotion, regulating financial transparency and reporting, and managing both local and international charity campaigns. The aim is to regulate the entire process of collecting and handling donations within the charitable sector. — Agencies

Drunk Asian Expats To Be Deported And Denied Re-Entry

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.
