Police foil attempt to smuggle 4m Captagon pills into Kuwait
Police foil attempt to smuggle 4m Captagon pills into Kuwait KUWAIT: The Ministry of Interior said Wednesday that agents of the criminal investigations sector were able to foil an attempt to smuggle a large quantity of psychostimulant substance worth KD 12 million (nearly USD 39.35 million) into Kuwait. The seizure, amounting to four million Captagon (fenethylline) pills, was hidden in an unconventional way inside water treatment pipes, according to a statement from the Ministry's General Directorate of Security Relations and Media. The security clampdown took place under supervision of First Deputy Prime Minister and Interior Minister Sheikh Fahad Yusuf Saud Al-Sabah and in cooperation with the General Administration of Customs and Kuwait Fire Force. Acting on tips, the security services arranged with the customs authorities to facilitate the entry of the consignment into Kuwait, kept watching the route it took, and then arrested one of culprits red-handed. The main culprit is abroad and the Kuwaiti authorities are in contact with the authorities of the country he is residing in as a prelude to a legal action against him, the statement noted. The consignment took a tricky route before arriving in Kuwait; it was smuggled to an Arab country and to a European one before its final destination, the statement said. The Ministry of interior appreciated the cooperation with the anti-drug agencies of the concerned countries that led to the successful clampdown. — KUNA

Nod to humanitarian work law
Detectives bust second network selling residencies to expats KUWAIT: A high-level government committee entrusted to regulate charity and humanitarian activities in Kuwait approved on Wednesday a draft law for humanitarian work in the country with the aim to boost transparency and accountability. The charitable work committee, headed by First Deputy Prime Minister and Interior Minister Sheikh Fahad Al-Yousef Al-Sabah, has been working for the past several months to increase official oversight over a number of charity organizations in Kuwait that have carried out a large number of charity projects inside and outside Kuwait. The approval came after the ministry of social affairs ordered charity organizations in Kuwait, a majority of which are run by Islamic societies, to halt their work for several weeks in a bid to regulate them. The ministry and the committee both issued stricter reforms to boost transparency of the charity organizations and the government's oversight of their work. The draft law aims to strengthen the principles of governance, reinforce transparency and accountability and enhance the efficiency of implementing charitable initiatives and projects, a statement said. Once officially approved, the new draft legislation is expected to mark a significant step in organizing humanitarian work practices, improve policies and regulations and bolster local and domestic trust in the organizations operating in the charity sector. For the past several decades, Kuwait has played a leading role among the oil-rich Gulf states in charitable work, with a large number of charity projects all over the world, especially in the Middle East and Africa. Separately, the interior ministry announced on Wednesday residency detectives busted a network selling visas to expats for money, the second such bust this week. The ministry said a complaint by a Pakistani who paid KD 650 for a residence permit to another Pakistani led to busting the network. Investigations revealed that the accused, who admitted to receiving the money, is a partner in 11 companies with 162 workers on their records. A number of workers registered on these companies admitted to paying sums ranging between KD 500 and KD 900 to obtain residency permits. Investigations also revealed that some of them paid additional sums ranging between KD 60 and KD 70 to falsify salary data on work permits to obtain family residency permits. A Kuwaiti was also summoned as an authorized signatory for the 11 companies, admitting to receiving monthly sums ranging between KD 500 and KD 600. The ministry said the 12 suspects were referred to the public prosecution, confirming that investigations, arrests and inspections of the headquarters of the concerned companies are underway.
