KUWAIT CITY: A Kuwaiti woman has been sentenced to three years in prison for violating the State Security Crimes Law through her activities on the social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter.
The criminal court found her guilty of insulting the emir, inciting the overthrow of the government and misusing communication devices. While the defendant denied the charges, claiming that she was forced to make the posts under external threats, the court upheld the charges after a thorough investigation.
The decision underscores Kuwait’s tough stance on actions perceived as threats to state security.
