The authority disclosed that money was disbursed as a pledge to the committee, but the defendant allegedly committed financial violations in his capacity as chairman of the committee from June 16, 2013 to Feb 7, 2016.

Meanwhile , in another unrelated case , the Second Ahmadi Urgent Appeals Chamber, headed by Judge Muhammad Al-Abhoul with judges Abdullah Al-Najm and Abdul Rahman Al-Tabtabaei as members, cancelled the ruling on the seizure of the property of the ex-wife of an American. Case files indicate that the American seized the property of his ex-wife with the intention of selling it in a public auction for KD77,000. The Sales Department in the Court of Cassation then held a session in implementation of the ruling in his favor as his ex-wife was obligated to hand over the property. However, the chamber overturned the ruling.
