Kuwait has revoked the citizenship of 38 people convicted in terrorism-related cases. The move comes after the issuance of final rulings in three high-profile terrorism trials. These rulings were based on comprehensive investigations and legal processes, showing that the government was keen on national security.
They are the convicts who had involved themselves in violent activities, being stripped off their Kuwaiti citizenship in what is turning out to be a move of the government to continue its fight against extremism and terrorism. The event sends a clear message that Kuwait will not tolerate terrorism and will take decisive action against those undermining the country’s stability.
This move falls in line with the larger strategy of Kuwait’s anti-terrorism approach, where the aim is to discourage terrorist activities through harsh punishments. Legal scholars argue that these steps are meant to avoid further induction into such extremist organizations and protect the social and political order of the country.
The Kuwait government has, however made a point of emphasizing that it shall not compromise its citizens’ rights but at the same time does not hesitate to give harsh sentences on those who break the peace. Revoking citizenship is a good tool to deter terrorism and Kuwait has shown that securing its future will be the prime objective.
