Kuwaiti Gets 5 Years for ISIS Support, Insulting Amir

KUWAIT CITY, July 13:The Court of Cassation, presided over by Judge Mohammad Al-Khalaf, upheld a five-year prison sentence with hard labor against a Kuwaiti citizen convicted of advocating joining the terrorist organization ISIS and insulting the Amir and rulers of Gulf and Arab countries. State Security services arrested the accused after monitoring his social media activity. He had used his accounts to promote extremist ideologies, incite others to support ISIS, and publish offensive content targeting political leaders in Kuwait and the region. This constitutes a serious violation that threatens state security and public order.
