Woman wins post: The Administrative Court cancelled Ministry of Interior’s decision not to appoint a Kuwaiti woman as legal researcher in the General Investigations Department.

In a legal lawsuit filed by the defense counsel Lawyer Ali Al-Ali on behalf of his client, explained that she obtained Bachelor’s degree in Law with a very good GPA of 87.97 in 2012/2013. When the General Investigations Department announced its need for staff for the position of legal researcher, she and many others applied for job.
