-

KUWAIT CITY, Sept 15: The number of traffic violations has increased again after witnessing weeks of decline which, the security authoritie­s say, was a result of partial and total ban imposed by the government to contain the spread of the Covid-19 pandemic, reports Al-Anba daily.

Last week, the traffic sector, headed by the Assistant Undersecre­tary for Operations and Traffic Affairs, Major General Jamal Al-Sayegh, said about 25,000 citations were issued in all governorat­es of Kuwait, topped by the Capital governorat­e with 5,528.

Officers on bail: The Public Prosecutio­n has released of two state security personnel (colonels) on 5,000 dinars bail each and has slapped a travel ban on them, until investigat­ions into the case are completed, reports Al-Anba daily.

The security services had referred the two officers to the Public Prosecutio­n Office following leaks of the audio recordings of interrogat­ions of the State Security Department in the social media.
