The Criminal Court presided over by Judge Faisal Al-Askari acquitted an Arab female expatriate from the charge of possession and use of amphetamine, tramadul and other drugs as well as for illegal residency. According to the case files, when police on patrol in Hawally noticed a person sitting inside a vehicle that was parked at a deserted area, they approached the vehicle for investigations and found the defendant under the influence of drugs. They found a cigarette pack and six narcotic pills. When they checked her details, they discovered that her Kuwait residency had expired. Defense Attorney Zaid Al-Khabbaz requested the court to acquit his client, proving that the warrant for inspection and arrest of his client was illegal. He added that his suspect is an illegal resident in Kuwait because the Ministry of Social Affairs and Labor had approved the renewal of her residence for a later date, which was after her residence expiry date. Meanwhile, in another case, the Criminal Court, presided over by Judge Adel Saqer, deliberated the case filed by the Interior Ministry against MP Mohammed Hayef for calling on the religious scholars to issue a fatwa on the killing of the Syrian ambassador to Kuwait on June 12, 2012. Case files indicate Hayef denied all the charges when he appeared before the Public Prosecution, which released him on KD 2,000 bail upon completion of the interrogation process. The ministry filed the case after Hayef called for the killing of the Syrian ambassador during a rally in support of the Syrians at the Erada Square.
