Sexual Crime Is On Rise In The Kuwaiti Society

Sexual crime is on the rise lately in the Kuwaiti society, reports Al-Qabas daily. This was disclosed at a recent seminar titled ‘Physical Violence against Women …Post Traumatic Shock Disorders’ organized by Kuwait Liberal Movement at the premises of Social Workers Society in Adailiya area to shed light on the incessant physical violence and sexual crimes happening in the country of late.

The speakers agreed that most affected families are trying to conceal the reality and prefer to keep their ordeals secret to avoid scandal. They noted roughly 2 percent of children in Kuwait have been exposed to abduction, and almost 13 percent were sexually abused.
