Kuwait’s security authorities have announced the arrest of citizens associated with a “banned organization that seeks to undermine the basic systems of the country,” the Interior Ministry said on Wednesday.
In a statement on X, the Ministry said that the State Security Service arrested citizens who have joined a banned organization that aims to harm the country, in reference to a terrorist group.
The detainees “disseminated the ideas of the organization on a social networking website and sought to travel abroad to join the organization,” according to the statement from the Ministry’s General Directorate of Security Relations and Media.
They have been referred to the Public Prosecution to take the appropriate legal measures against them, the statement concluded.
