Crackdown on Jleeb, Khaitan intensified by the Kuwait Authorities
KUWAIT CITY, Aug 19: Kuwait's Cabinet on Tuesday looked into the progress on a national crackdown against rampant real estate violations in Jleeb Al-Shuyoukh and Khaitan areas, spearheaded by First Deputy Prime Minister and Interior Minister Sheikh Fahad Yousef Saud Al- Sabah. Kuwait has intensified security campaigns in a bid to uphold the law and crack down on widespread real estate and commercial violations in these two areas, the Kuwaiti interior minister told the Cabinet amid its weekly session presided over by His Highness the Prime Minister Ahmad Al-Abdullah Al-Ahmad Al-Sabah, citing the need for greater cooperation across state bodies to address the matter. The traffic congestion in the two densely-populated areas, along with violators' attempts to circumvent the law, are major impediments to the efforts of security forces to push forward the crackdown, the minister underlined, emphasizing that state bodies would do their utmost to restore order and enforce the rule of law. The Cabinet then looked into a report by a ministerial-level public services committee over donations given by state bodies and private firms in support of a national green initiative, thanking them for their contributions towards efforts aiming to add an aesthetic touch to roads and areas nationwide. Letters addressed to His Highness the Amir Sheikh Meshal Al- Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah from the leaders of friendly nations were among the matters discussed during the session, which dealt with efforts aiming to ratchet up cooperation and bolster relations between Kuwait and these countries. The Cabinet also approved a decision to strip Kuwaiti citizenship off several individuals, based on the works and findings of a national committee formed to investigate the matter.(KUNA)
