Kuwaiti Police have started to be deployed on key streets late at night to check women dressed indecently as part of a campaign women involved on vice, says Emirates 24/7 online news.
The crackdown also targets men dressed in women’s Clothes hunting for men going out late night in the capital Kuwait City and other areas of the country. The Arabic language daily ‘Al Anba’, quoting an interior ministry statement, said a large number of policemen have been deployed in suspected areas and have started to check the IDs of indecently dressed women and suspected gays.
