Hunt for the gas pump store 3 am robber
According to the case details, a Kuwaiti citizen born in 1996 -- acting in his capacity as an agent for a company operating multiple branches inside fuel stations -- filed the complaint. He reported that at approximately 3:00 am on the day of the alleged theft a man of medium height and slim build with a light complexion, wearing a black T-shirt and light gray shorts entered the store.
The suspect took 10 pieces of chocolates, five tanning lotions and four lighters -- totaling KD85.600, and went out of the store without paying. The complainant submitted video evidence documenting the theft. It remains unclear whether the incident was discovered immediately by store staff or later through a review of security footage. The report did not specify whether the suspect arrived in a vehicle or whether any additional video captured the vehicle's make, model or license plate number. Security authorities continue to review the evidence and are working hard to track down the culprit.

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
