Kuwait Conducts Large-Scale Security Campaign in Jleeb Al-Shuyoukh and Khaitan
In a bid to safeguard society and combat violations, a joint security campaign was led by the Criminal Security Sector, under the supervision of First Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Interior Sheikh Fahad Al-Yousef, in the areas of Jleeb Al-Shuyoukh and Khaitan. The campaign, which took place in December 2020, was a cooperative effort among multiple government institutions.
The General Department of Criminal Investigations took the reins of the operation, with the Kuwait Fire Force, Kuwait Municipality, Ministry of Public Works, Ministry of Commerce, Environment Public Authority, and Ministry of Electricity, Water and Renewable Energy all playing significant roles.
During the campaign, a total of 26 violators were arrested, and 19 shops were closed for failing to meet licensing requirements. Informal markets were dismantled, and commercial activities not approved by the Ministry of Commerce and the Kuwait Municipality were issued violations.
Sheikh Fahad Al-Yousef ordered authorities to act decisively against offenders, imposing immediate and deterrent measures. He also instructed relevant authorities to intensify oversight of violating establishments.
The security operations will continue as part of a wider plan to combat violations and protect public safety. However, no specific details of the continued security operations were provided in the report.
The large-scale security operation was reported by Al-Rai daily, highlighting the importance placed on maintaining law and order in Kuwait. Despite the ongoing operations, there was no information available on updates on the latest news on the website, Instagram, or Facebook.
In conclusion, the joint security campaign in Jleeb Al-Shuyoukh and Khaitan was a significant step towards maintaining law and order and ensuring public safety in Kuwait. The campaign's success underscores the cooperation and commitment of various government institutions towards this common goal.
