KUWAIT CITY, Feb 12: The Court of Cassation upheld the four-year prison sentence with hard labor imposed on a colonel, head of the licensing unit at the Jahra Traffic Department, and several expatriates, for involvement in the issuance of forged driving licenses and the use of forged work permits and academic certificates. Investigations proved the defendants’ involvement in processing driving license applications based on falsified documents, including work permits and academic certificates that were proven to be forged. The Court of Cassation rejected the appeals filed by the defendants and upheld the ruling of the lower and appeals courts, which found them guilty of forgery. Also, the court acquitted the colonel of bribery charges due to insufficient evidence.
