Withdrawal Of The Legal Licenses Of Expatriates A Clear Injustice
“Just as we support the law that supports justice in the face of injustice, we say no to any blind law that targets the weak who are unable or does not dare defend themselves.”
This is what a report published by Al-Jarida says and questions the right of the Ministry of Interior to place a ‘block’ on 247,000 valid driving licenses for expatriates, in preparation for their withdrawal.
What the Ministry of Interior seems to have forgetten is that these expatriates have obtained the licences in ways that the Ministry itself approved, among professions it deemed worthy, and exceptions that were officially approved according to the circumstances of each case.
The daily added, “Yes, we are with the ministry in detecting counterfeiters, regulating traffic and eliminating intermediaries, but we are never with it in the immediate withdrawal of valid licenses from people whose lives are all dependent on them.
“All we ask for is a bit of fairness,” the report concluded.
