KUWAIT CITY, May 19: The Court of Cassation has upheld the verdicts issued by both the Court of Appeal and the Criminal Court, sentencing a Kuwaiti university student to three years in prison with hard labor. The student was convicted of insulting the Amir and inciting the overthrow of the regime through articles posted on the social media platform X (formerly Twitter) using a fake account.

During the trial, the defendant denied all charges, claiming that her account had been exploited by an expatriate residing outside Kuwait. She stated that this individual had threatened her and warned her not to delete the tweets and articles that were published under her name.

KUWAIT CITY, May 19: The Family Court granted a Kuwaiti woman a divorce from her husband due to the harm she suffered from him, along with custody of her children. The wife discovered her husband’s infidelity after noticing a change in his behavior. She found photographs and conversations on his phone that confirmed he was involved with other women. She then filed a case in the Family Court, seeking a divorce due to harm, while retaining all her financial rights and custody of the children. In his defense, the husband claimed he had other wives, but it was proven that he was only married to the woman in question. The court ruled in favor of the wife, based on the arguments presented by her legal counsel, Lawyer Mohammad Safar.
