Kuwait Court Jails Bedoun, Egyptian for Two Years Over KD1,300 Mosque Theft

KUWAIT CITY, Nov 9: The Criminal Court has sentenced a Bedoun man and an Egyptian national to two years’ imprisonment with hard labor and immediate enforcement after they were convicted of stealing KD1,300 from the room of a mosque muezzin during the Dhuhr prayer.

The theft was uncovered following investigations by the Criminal Investigations Department, which gathered evidence leading to the identification and arrest of the two suspects.

The court subsequently found the defendants guilty and ordered them to serve their two-year prison sentences with hard labor.
