WESTERN BACKED KUWAIT AND DRACONIAN MEDIA POLICIES
Kuwait Lifts Immunity From MPs, Regulating Social Media
Kuwait’s parliament announced that nine lawmakers could face prosecution for storming the assembly last year during protests against the former prime minister. In a series of events that led to the dissolution of parliament, the government’s resignation, and at least 45 arrests Kuwait wasforced to hold “snap elections” in February. On Tuesday, the parliament granted the request of the prosecution service to lift the immunity that was granted to the members of parliament who had stormed the parliament session last year; their cases can now be referred to court.
In other news, Information Minister Sheikh Mohammad al-Mubarak Al-Sabah stated, ”The government is now in the process of establishing laws that will allow government entities to regulate the use of the different new media outlets such as Twitter in order to safeguard the cohesiveness of the population and society.” Member of Parliament Mohammad al-Dallal, who specializes in legal matters, said there is strong support within the parliament to pass the regulatory laws, and added, ”Twitter is an open area … everyone can speak. But it is not always being used as social media in Kuwait – not about friendship or personal matters but it is being used politically, to attack. This is a bad thing.”
