KUWAIT, April 21: A Jazeera Airways plane repatriating Kuwaiti citizens from Cairo Tuesday also carried Egypt's Consul General in the State of Kuwait who would follow up deportation of Egyptians violating residency law, Kuwait Ambassador to Egypt said.


Mohammad Al-Thuwaikh explained that the deportation of Egyptian nationals were at the request of the Egyptian authorities.
He was reacting to social media reports that the Jazeera Airways plane carried non-Kuwaiti passengers.


Speaking to KUNA, Al-Thuwaikh all passengers on board the Jazeera Airways were Kuwaiti citizens but the Egyptian Consul who "returned to carry out his duties in taking care of affairs of our Egyptians brothers in the country including following up deportation of violators at the request of the Egyptian authorities."


He called on those circulating these false reports to refrain from doing so (KUNA) --
