KUWAIT CITY, Oct 19: Kuwait’s Anti-Corruption Authority (Nazaha) has referred former supervisors and other personnel at the Ministry of Communications to the Public Prosecution on suspicion of misappropriating public funds, the authority announced Sunday.

In a statement posted on its official Twitter account, Nazaha reaffirmed its ongoing commitment to thoroughly examine, collect evidence, and investigate all credible information related to corruption cases submitted through any channel.
