KUWAIT CITY, June 2: The Ministry of Health has discovered about 50 fake sick leave certificates issued to the National Assembly staff, reports Al-Qabas daily.

According to informed sources, the fraud was discovered as a result of cooperation between the ministry and the General Secretariat of the National Assembly.

The daily added a detailed report about the names of persons and the date on which the sick leaves were issued will be sent to the concerned authorities for necessary action.

The sources added the Secretariat became suspicious about some sick leaves because they were stamped by doctors from more than one public hospital and referred them to the Ministry of Health to further scrutiny and comparing them with the seals of doctors who work in the hospitals.

According to the sources, the forged certificates were discovered only from Al Adan Hospital so far and a report was submitted to the Ministry of Health which will also address the General Secretariat of the National Assembly to take the necessary measures against the forgers.
