KUWAIT CITY, Jan 15: The Deportation and Temporary Detention Affairs Department has deported 630 expatriates — 350 men and 280 women — for committing various crimes.

Meanwhile the Correctional Institutions Sector and private security forces recently carried out a week-long inspection campaign in the Prison Complex, reports Al- Jarida daily quoting sources. Sources confirmed the campaign was made possible through the concerted efforts of the Special Security and Prison Security Administration forces. Sources said the campaign resulted in the confiscation of 19 mobile phones, eight mobile phone headsets, 18 SIM cards, 20 charger wires, one charger, one router and six fl ash memory sticks.

The sector confirmed that the inspection campaign continues until all the forbidden items are confiscated; including the Central Prison, General Prison and Women’s Prison. It added such campaign has greatly contributed to reducing the number of forbidden items in the Prison Complex, stressing that the necessary action will be taken like the referral of confiscated items to the concerned authorities.
