Kuwait Court of Cassation principle number 168

The offence of bringing counterfeit banknotes into the country with knowledge that they are counterfeit. The statutory excuse exempting from punishment set out in Article 267 of the Penal Code applies to it. The basis therefor. - The judgment's stating matters suggesting the existence of the statutory excuse exempting from punishment, and the appellant's maintaining this in his defence. The judgment's disregard thereof and its confining its rejection to stating that the conditions were not met because he did not inform the authorities before completion of the offence, without addressing the second situation set out in Article 267 of the Penal Code, namely the perpetrator's facilitating the arrest of the remaining perpetrators even after the search for them has begun. Deficient reasoning requiring its cassation.
