The Kuwaiti cabinet on Monday approved a bill revising Article 17 of Law 8/1969, anyone violating the preventive requirements regarding health will be punished by jailing them for up to three months and a maximum fine of KD 5,000 or by either.
Deputy Prime Minister and Interior Minister Anas Al-Saleh said that it also aims at punishing anyone who may break Article 15 of the same law regarding pandemic outbreak by imprisoning him or her by up to six months and a fine of KD 10,000-30,000 or by either.
Also under the new bill, anyone who may be infected with a contagious disease and deliberately transmits the disease to others by holding him or her for up to five years in prison and a KD 10,000-50,000 fine or by either, he added.
The fresh measures are part of ongoing efforts exerted by all ministries and state agencies to curtail the spread of the novel coronavirus in the country.
