The office of public prosecution accused a defendant of robbery. The office requested the court to penalize the defendant according to the relevant laws.

The court ruled that the defendant should be imprisoned for three years. The court ruled that the defendant should be deported from the country after the ruling execution.

The office and the defendant appealed the ruling before the court of appeal. The court dismissed the appealed ruling and acquitted the defendant.

The office appealed the ruling before the court of cassation. The office said in its grounds of appeal that the ruling had erred in the application of law. The office said that the court had acquitted the defendant despite of the existence of the required evidence.

The court said that this argument was valid. The court said that the case documents revealed that evidence existed in the case and that the defendant should be penalized according to Article 222 of Kuwait Law No. 16/1960 .

The court repealed the appealed ruling.
