Kuwait Court of Cassation principle number 327
State of Kuwait · Penal Law · Ministry of Justice — Court of Cassation — Technical Office
English translation of the principle
The officer's obtaining authorization from the Public Prosecution after his inquiries indicated that the appellant was purchasing stolen cars, dismantling them, and selling them as spare parts. Its implication: the order was issued to detect a crime whose occurrence had been established, not to detect a future crime. The challenge in this regard is unfounded.
Arabic original
استصدار الضابط إذناً من النيابة بعد أن دلت تحرياته على أن الطاعن يقوم بشراء السيارات المسروقة وتقطيعها وبيعها كقطع غيار. مفاده: أن الأمر صدر لضبط جريمة تحقق وقوعها لا لضبط جريمة مستقبلة. النعي في هذا الخصوص غير سديد.Original Arabic judgment citations
