Kd 5,000 Fine For Taking Photos At A Cemetery

Dr. Faisal Al Awadi, Director of the Kuwait Municipality's Funerals Department, stated that anyone seen destroying graves or photographing funerals in the cemetery may be fined up to 5,000 KD.

Families of the departed and mourners are unhappy, according to an Al-Rai article, with the big crowds that arrive at the cemetery for the burials of politicians, athletes, celebrities, and others. According to the research, this type of phenomenon shows a lack of respect for the dead and graves.

A circular has already been issued to take legal action against anyone who takes images in graves with whatever type of camera. The graves may not be utilized for anything other than the purpose for which they were created, according to Article 3. Article 8 specifies that sanctity must be protected during transportation, washing, shrouding, and burial and that anyone who violates these two articles would be fined between 2,000 and 5,000 dinars.
