KUWAIT CITY, July 14: The Criminal Court, presided over by Lawyer Mutab Al-Ardi, has sentenced a Kuwaiti employee of the Public Authority for Civil Information to five years in prison for accepting bribes from expats in exchange for falsifying their registered addresses. The court also handed down identical five-year prison sentences to the expat accomplices, imposed fines amounting to twice the total bribe amount, and ordered their deportation from the country following their arrest by security authorities.
