KUWAIT CITY, Aug 12: As part of ongoing efforts by the Criminal Security Sector to combat harmful practices and protect society from fraud and deception, the General Department of Criminal Investigation — Financial Crimes Combating Department — has arrested a retired Kuwaiti citizen on charges of practicing witchcraft, sorcery, divination, and fraud in exchange for money.
According to the investigation, detectives received confidential information indicating that citizen Fawzia Ahmed Talib was engaged in illegal activities, luring victims by claiming she could resolve family disputes, break spells, bring good luck, and fulfill wishes, all for monetary payment.
After verifying the tip and completing the necessary investigations, authorities obtained a legal warrant and moved to arrest the suspect at her residence in the Mangaf area.
A search of the premises uncovered tools, materials, herbs, and stones used for witchcraft, along with other items linked to her activities. All seized materials were confiscated, and the accused was referred to the competent authorities for legal action.
The Ministry of Interior reiterated its commitment to combating practices that harm society and contradict cultural and moral values, urging citizens and residents to report any similar activities through official channels.
