360 Syrians Carrying Kuwaiti Surnames
The investigations into the forgery case reveal a complex network of social relationships and familial ties involving Syrian individuals and people holding Gulf nationalities. It has been uncovered that five brothers obtained Kuwaiti citizenship through fraudulent means more than 18 years ago, using witness testimonies and false names. Scientific investigations utilizing DNA analysis confirmed that these brothers are cousins, and that one member of the family, who holds a Gulf nationality, is actually their true sibling, despite their different official names and personal data. The results also showed that some of those naturalized had established leadership over families built on forged identities, some of which rested on incorrect certificates issued decades ago in collusion with witnesses. Furthermore, the investigations revealed that social networks and familial ties were exploited to conceal individuals' true identities. The fraudulent naturalization operations often began with old certificates and were supplemented by witness testimonies, before expanding to scientific verification, which led to the revocation of citizenship from 360 people, including women and individuals with vested interests. The case highlights the evolution of Kuwaiti authorities' work in connecting old information with modern technologies. It underscores the importance of Gulf cooperation in combating forgery through precise genetic testing to establish true kinship and origins, ensuring the authenticity of beneficiaries' nationalities and documentation.
