KUWAIT CITY, Feb 23: In an unprecedented fraud case, a female citizen working in the Office of the Minister of Interior took advantage of her position to illegally collect money from an expatriate in exchange for approvals from an entity affiliated with the Council of Ministers to finalize a transaction related to the registration of a residential property under the latter’s name, reports Al-Seyassah daily quoting sources.
Sources disclosed the citizen approaches her victims by claiming that she is one of the infl uential people, and that her father and sister hold vital positions in the Cabinet.
However, her deception was uncovered when her latest victim registered a case against her at Salmiya Police Station (Misdemeanor Case number 205/2023), demanding for full refund of the amount given to the citizen. Sources said the victim went to the competent authority in the Council of Ministers to inquire about the transaction, only to discover that the citizen deceived him. He was informed that no payment was made for his transaction, so he confronted the citizen, but she avoided him.
