Criminal Security arrests a resident practicing medicine without a license in Jabir Al-Ahmad

The Criminal Security Sector, represented by the General Administration of Criminal Investigations (Counter-Counterfeiting and Forgery Crimes Department), arrested an Azerbaijani resident for practicing medicine without a license and for using her private residence in the Jabir Al-Ahmad City area as a fully equipped health facility in exchange for monetary payments.

The arrest followed intelligence indicating that the suspect was receiving patients, providing medical consultations and examinations, and preparing, selling, and distributing herbal mixtures without obtaining the necessary approvals and licenses from the competent authorities. Investigations and inquiries confirmed the accuracy of this information.

After obtaining the required legal authorization, a team from the Counter-Counterfeiting and Forgery Crimes Department, in collaboration with the Women’s Police, moved to the site. They arrested the suspect while she was conducting medical activities without a license. It was found that the residence had been set up as a complete medical clinic, with a portion of it dedicated to preparing and manufacturing herbal mixtures and preparing their labels.

The operation also yielded 11,651 Kuwaiti dinars, a medical bed, several examination tools, a white coat, a register for recording patient data, as well as tools and materials for preparing herbal mixtures and their labels.

When confronted with the findings of the investigations and the seized items, the suspect admitted to operating the residence as an unlicensed medical facility and providing consultations and examinations for fees ranging between 5 and 30 dinars.
