Kuwaiti royal detained over tweet
Did anyone see this story?
http://www.zawya.com/story/Kuwait_gr...emailmarketing Kuwaiti authorities released a member of the ruling family on Sunday after holding him for four days after he accused senior government officials of corruption on Twitter. Sheikh Meshal al-Malek al-Sabah, part of the extended ruling family, was detained on July 25, he confirmed in a short telephone interview with the Financial Times. "Until this moment I don't know why I was kidnapped," Sheikh Meshal told the FT. etc... Not a surprise if the man in the street is detained over such things, but a member of the ruling family? Interesting. |

'Putting on my conspiracy hat, made with the finest KitKat foil; it could all be an attempt by Kuwaiti authorities to show how the justice system is non biased even when Royals are involved... :lol: |
