KUWAIT CITY, Jul 14: The Court of Appeal has confirmed the Criminal Court's decision to sentence an Egyptian doctor to five years in prison. The doctor was found guilty of impersonating a Kuwaiti citizen, entering Kuwait using a stolen passport from Egypt, and altering her facial features to resemble the citizen.

Earlier, the Public Prosecution had ordered the doctor’s detention for 21 days and referred her to the central prison. The case was subsequently transferred to the Criminal Court for further proceedings.
