The Second Circuit of the Criminal Court sentenced a Kuwaiti national to life imprisonment and fined her 50,000 dinars, after convicting her of trafficking in psychotropic substances, using them, and driving a vehicle under their influence, with her driver’s license suspended for one year.
The ruling followed investigations conducted by officers from the General Administration for Combating Narcotics, which uncovered the suspect’s activities and raised suspicions of her involvement in trafficking psychotropic substances. A sting operation was then set up to apprehend her, and subsequent arrest and investigative procedures revealed her possession and use of the drugs.
