‘Resume treatment for disabled woman’

Juvenile in blasphemy case

KUWAIT CITY, Aug 6: Lawyer Hawraa AlHabib has submitted a request to the Minister of Health on the need to provide treatment to her client who is suffering from a strange illness with disability and burns in different parts of her body.

Al-Habib urged the minister to grant the request on a humanitarian basis, saying her client has every right to the basic humanity she’s wrongly deprived of. She explained that the woman is feeling severe pains all over the body as a handicapped person, and discontinuation of her treatment has taken a toll on her. She emphasized that her client needs the service of an expert to make her treatment plan and dispense medications and program the batteries in her body or implement the decision of the complaints and petitions committee, which concluded on appointing a doctor for her treatment and dispensary, noting she is ready to face specialized committees if necessary.

Juvenile nabbed:

Director of Juvenile Prosecution has ordered an underage expatriate known as Shehab Al-Irani who goes by the name “Instagram salt” on social media to be remanded for 10 days at the Social Welfare Home over the allegation of blasphemy in a video clip with an actor.

The Department of Public Relations and Security Media at the Ministry of Interior accused the minor of blasphemy (against God and the Holy Prophet) in the clip. The officers later arrested the suspect and took necessary measures against him.

Case dismissed:

The Court of Cassation dismissed the case of a citizen charged with forging official citizenship documents through which he included names of children, declaring that statute of limitations rendered the case irrelevant.

The prosecution charged the defendant with forging documents, including birth certificate and civil ID card issued under the name of a newborn. It was confirmed to be forged in 1984.
