Case of an adulterous wife forbidden to see her girls

Published

on

KUWAIT CITY, May 29: The Misdemeanor Court acquitted a Kuwaiti citizen of preventing his exwife, who was convicted of adultery, from seeing her minor daughters and the court declared her guilty of endangering their lives, causing them psychological harm and neglecting them. Attorney Zaid Al-Khabbaz, who appeared with the citizen in court, requested his client’s acquittal.

His client denied the accusation, clarifying that his client prevented the complainant from seeing his children because she was accused of adultery, which she had admitted. He also stated that he feared for his daughters’ safety due to the behavior of the complainant. The court confirmed in its reasoning that the citizen did not prevent his daughters from seeing their mother due to his own whims, but rather out of fear that they would follow their mother’s shameful and ugly behavior.

The court stated that the Child Protection Office report included numerous expressions from which the court inferred the girls’ hatred and loathing for their mother who was setting a bad example for her daughters. The court feared that if the accused was punished, the complainant would be able to see the girls; something that should not happen in light of her shameful and ugly behavior, from which the girls should be kept safe.

KUWAIT CITY, July 1: As part of its ongoing campaign to combat organized crime and enforce residency and labor laws, Kuwait’s Ministry of Interior, through the Nationality and Residency Affairs Sector and the General Department of Residency Investigations, has arrested a gang involved in large-scale document forgery aimed at securing travel visas to various European countries.

Investigations carried out in coordination with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs uncovered the gang’s fraudulent methods, which included altering job titles, falsifying employer information, and manipulating work permits, salary details, bank statements, and other official documents to meet visa requirements set by European embassies.

Initial findings also revealed the involvement of an Egyptian national operating a social media account from abroad, who promoted these illegal services and targeted individuals seeking to immigrate illegally. Authorities apprehended several gang members within Kuwait and seized electronic devices and forged documents used in their operations. The suspects and confiscated materials have been referred to the relevant authorities for legal action.

In line with international security cooperation, Kuwait coordinated immediately with authorities in the Arab Republic of Egypt, leading to the arrest of the remaining gang members abroad. Further legal procedures are currently underway.

The Ministry of Interior reaffirmed its commitment to upholding national security and enforcing the law, warning that it will continue to take firm action against anyone involved in such criminal activities. The Ministry also urged the public to comply with all laws and regulations.
