Panel To Intensify Probe In Missing Artifacts Case
Chairman of the parliamentary Education, Culture and Guidance Affairs Committee MP Hamad Al-Matar disclosed that the panel recently met with Minister of Information and Culture and Minister of State for Youth Affairs Abdulrahman Badah Al-Mutairi to discuss the missing artifacts. Al-Matar said the minister affirmed cooperation in solving the issue, and that he is deeply concerned about it. He confirmed that Al-Mutairi formed a fact-finding committee and intends to hold a press conference about this committee’s report after a couple of weeks.
He added the committee tasked to do an inventory in the rooms allocated for keeping the artifacts presented its report on Sept 9, 2019 stating that some boxes labeled with the numbers of some artifacts were empty. He went on to say that the parliamentary committee emphasized the need to take this fact into consideration during investigations on the missing artifacts. He wondered why the Sobia area, which contains artifacts from the Stone Age and dating back to almost 6,000 BC is secured only with a metal fence which can be broken easily.
He urged the government to assign a security company to protect the area and prevent thefts. He asked His Highness the Prime Minister Sheikh Sabah Al-Khalid to help Al-Mutairi in providing proper security in the area. He also unveiled his plan to call for the formation of a parliamentary fact-finding committee to investigate the issue at the beginning of the next legislative round.
