KUWAIT CITY: Around 500 Bedouns gathered in front of Sulaibiya Police Station Saturday to demand for their basic rights and citizenship which they have been deprived due to the overwhelming discrimination. They also demanded the release of those who were arrested in a demonstration in Taima on Friday. Disclosing the gathering was a continuation of the protest action that started in front of Al-Shahbi Mosque in Taima Friday, sources said the protesters called for their civil rights and demanded for the release of those who were arrested earlier.


Sources confirmed a large number of Special Forces were deployed to the area to disperse the protesters and in the process wounded seven of them. Sources added the security officers tried to convince the protesters to disperse on their own yet their calls went unheeded, so they had no option but to use tear gas and smoke bombs. This has prompted the protesters to flee from the scene and some of them took refuge in nearby houses, forcing the residents to run to the streets. The residents then appealed to the security forces to stop using tear gas as some of them, especially the children, had difficulty in breathing.
