KUWAIT CITY, Feb 8: The Kuwait Transparency Society (KTS), in a press release, has issued its monthly report for January 2010.
The aim of the report is to spotlight the negative aspects and fight corruption in the legislative, executive and other such institutions. The society has sent the report to the concerned body highlighting the irregularities committed by the state institutions.
Speaking of the Ministry of Interior, the report says the Ministry has withdrawn the nationality that had been granted to some people. However, the report makes no mention about the accountability of officials who in the first place had accepted the documents that do not meet the conditions.
The report highlights another folly committed by the ministry - it has accepted some persons in the Saad Al-Abdullah Academy for Security Sciences who had earlier been dismissed for health or legal reasons.
The report also makes a mention of abuse of authority by some policemen who are said to have forcefully had sex with women who were in police custody for violating residence laws.

The report made a special mention of lack of enthusiasm on the part of the ministry to collect traffic fines dated back to 1991.
The Society depending on a report issued by the Audit Bureau on the Foreign Ministry, said the diplomatic missions do not abide by the cost-saving policy and hire high cost vehicles and live in hotels for years.
On the issue of environment pollution, the report said the UN Compensation Commission has given Kuwait $674 million for the damage afflicted on the environment by the Iraqi aggressors, but no project to treat the environmental pollution has yet been announced.
On yet another issue, the report speaks about the sick leaves recorded by the Civil Service Commission (CSC) for 2009. It shows sick leaves alone have cost the Treasury KD 20 million – one-third more than in 2008.
The CSC report also shows 500 employees in the Ministry of Communications are working in departments that are not in the organizational structure of the ministry.
