2 Kuwaitis Acquitted In Forgery Case

The Court of Cassation overturned the verdict of First Instance Court upheld by Appeals Court that sentenced two Kuwaitis to two years imprisonment with hard labor for allegedly forging a residency renewal application form for an Asian worker. The apex court thereby acquitted the defendants of the allegation.

Lawyer Ali Al-Wawan in defense of his clients urged the court to dismiss the previous verdict based on insufficient evidences to indict the defendants. He said the previous courts were misled with inferential proofs without any concrete evidence.

The Public Prosecution charged the defendants for conspiring with an unknown person to jointly forge official documents meant for renewing residency for an Asian worker. They agreed to the atrocity with an unknown person while the second suspect provided the unknown person with necessary information to enable them forge signature of the plaintiff.
