Former oil officials criticize Dow investigation committee

KUWAIT: A parliamentary committee investigating the Dow Chemical case started taking new turns after some former senior oil sector officials made a statement explaining that the committee had made accusations against them without showing the least respect to their rights to be asked directly about such accusations. This was already highlighted by MP Ahmad Al-Qudhaibi, who stressed that they had not been called to be interrogated. The statement signed by former oil sector senior officials, including Saad Al-Showayyeb, Maha Mulla Hussein, Yousif Al-Ateeqi, Nasser Al-Enezi, Khaled Al-Ajeel and Salah Al-Kharji. They refuted the allegations made by chairman of the parliament’s public fund protection committee MP Abdullah Al-Turaiji, who claimed that the investigation committee had summoned all related officials.
