KUWAIT CITY, Oct 5: The Ministry of Interior announced the arrest of a member of the ruling family who had been evading a mandatory prison sentence for charges related to money laundering and usury.

In a statement, the Ministry said, "As part of ongoing efforts to apprehend fugitives and uphold justice by enforcing judicial rulings, the security services successfully arrested a member of the ruling family who was avoiding the execution of an enforceable prison sentence on charges of money laundering and usury."

The arrest followed thorough investigations, careful tracking of the individual's movements, and precise operations to determine his location. He has since been handed over to the relevant authorities for further legal action.

The Ministry emphasized that these efforts are part of its ongoing commitment to upholding the rule of law, ensuring justice, and applying legal measures equally to all, including members of the ruling family, with no exceptions.
