The UAE has arrested an Indian fugitive from Kuwait following a joint operation between Kuwaiti and UAE security forces.
The fugitive was involved in a scheme that laundered money and illegally trafficked alcohol in Kuwait, generating KD 433,000 (BD 530,000). He initially managed to flee Kuwait but was eventually apprehended in the UAE.
The operation was carried out through a coordinated effort between authorities in Kuwait, Abu Dhabi, and Dubai.
Investigations revealed that a further 157 Asian nationals were involved in the operation, sending money abroad under the guise of family expenses.
The man has been sentenced in Kuwait to 10 years’ imprisonment and deportation.
