In a press statement, the Ministry of Interior said that Sheikh Fahad Al-Yousef emphasized in his speech that investigative work is a national responsibility and a trust requiring integrity, impartiality, and strict adherence to the application of the law with fairness and objectivity, thereby ensuring the revelation of truth, the protection of rights, and the achievement of justice. He stressed that Kuwait places its trust in its graduate sons and daughters, and that “they must live up to this trust and responsibility, making justice and the law the foundation of their duties, and applying the provisions of the law to everyone without exception,” adding that “there is no distinction between the powerful and the weak, nor between those in positions of authority and others.”
For his part, Director General of the General Directorate of Investigations, Major General Dr. Faisal Al-Mukarrad, in a similar speech, emphasized the importance of the role played by investigators within the justice system and law enforcement, and the responsibility resting on their shoulders to perform their duties with utmost honesty and integrity.

This batch also witnessed, for the first time, the graduation of female police officers to work in the field of investigations, a step that enhances the participation of female cadres in this sector.
