The office of public prosecution accused a defendant of embezzlement and fabricating formal documents. The office requested the court to penalize the defendant according to Article 9(1), 10 and 16 of Kuwait Law No. 1/1993.

The court ruled that the defendant should be imprisoned for seven years and that he should pay a fine equal to the amount of money he had stolen. The court ruled that the defendant should also pay 4537 Dinars and that should be dismissed from his job.

The defendant appealed the ruling before the court of appeal. The court amended the appealed ruling and ruled that the defendant should pay a fine of 2000 Dinars and to pay 4537 Dinars as well.
