KUWAIT CITY, March 21: The Criminal Court sentenced a Saudi national to 7 years in prison with a fine of KD 20,000 for inciting sectarian chaos among Kuwait Shiites. The Public Prosecution accused the suspect of posting offensive and scornful statements against Shiites in the country through a fake Twitter account. He was also charged for misusing his mobile phone.

‘Death’ for accused: Attorney Fahd Al-Barikan issued a statement on the murder of a citizen, in his 30’s, in Al-Wafra at the beginning of March. The citizen died after a friend deliberately ran over him. The lawyer pointed out the victim’s friend forgot their friendship as he intentionally hit the victim with his car until the latter lost his life, stressing he will spare no effort until the accused is sentenced to death. Al-Barikan went on to say such a heinous crime must not be tolerated, asserting the culprit must be punished as per law to deter others who might be planning to ‘play’ with the blood of innocent people.
