KUWAIT CITY, March 30: The State Security personnel are interrogating 12 men — Kuwaitis, Saudis and Egyptians — who were seized from a mosque in Al-Qadsiya area, reports Annahar daily.

Police, security officers and state security men rushed to the mosque after a Kuwaiti called the Operations Room of the Interior Ministry and complained about the suspicious looking bearded men meeting people inside the mosque.

The security forces immediately surrounded the mosque and seized from the men leaflets and Islamic books. The Saudis and Egyptians said they arrived in the country a few days ago from Saudi Arabia.
