Kuwait City – The Kuwaiti Criminal Court has sentenced seven foreigners to seven years in prison for money laundering, fraud and blackmail. There is also a provision to deport the accused after completing their sentence. Five of the accused are living in European countries. In their absence, the court completed the trial and announced the sentence.
The fraud case came to the attention of the relevant departments after a Kuwaiti citizen complained that two foreign women had cheated him and cheated him of 1,57,000 Kuwaiti dinars by making investments through trading platforms abroad. After this, the gang blackmailed and threatened the Kuwaiti national, claiming that he was on the terror list, pressurizing him to transfer huge sums of money abroad.
The group also asked the Kuwaiti national to hand over more money to help remove his name from the terror list. During the arrest and investigation, it became clear that the two women were part of a fraud group consisting of five other foreigners based in Europe. The prosecution leveled charges of money laundering, taking the victim’s money and misusing information and communication systems against the accused. Initially, the Kuwaiti national was reluctant to lodge a complaint considering the fact that the accused were residing abroad.
