Penal Court Acquitted A Kuwaiti Man In Drugs Case

13 February 2017 Crime News

The First Penal Circuit at the Court of Appeals acquitted a Kuwaiti man of possessing hashish and other illicit drugs for consumption and sale, without any legitimate authorization. The Prosecution officer said he sighted the suspect parking his car in a desert area. He then approached the man to verify his documents and found a sachet containing illicit drugs on him. This prompted the officer to conduct a search on the suspect who was already in a disoriented state to the extent that he could not control himself. Defense lawyer Talal Sabr Al-Enezi argued that the officer could not justify the reasons for embarrassing his client. He noted the document presented did not claim his client was disoriented in the search and the arrest procedures were null and void.
