According to Al-Seyassah daily, the Court of Appeals upheld the lower court’s decision to exonerate an expat who had falsified a usual document, namely “an acknowledgment of receipt of a debt,” worth KD 170,000, and erroneously linked it to the plaintiff.

The plaintiff’s attorney stated that the defendant had previously issued a whole performance order against the plaintiff, requiring him to pay him KD 170,000. The aforementioned payment order was obtained by virtue of a fake acknowledgment of receipt of the debt, which the accused added the sentence “and the cash amounts until the value of the cheque is cashed.” The incident was reported as a result. Lawyer Inaam Haider’s defense attorney brought forward several points throughout the hearing, including the serious mistake, the inconsistency in the description registration, the careless reporting, the maliciousness of the charge, and its fabrication.
