A Kuwaiti lawman said here Monday the world economic and political atmosphere had led to growing economic crimes. Nahes al-Enezi, a lawyer at the Supreme Constitutional Court, told Kuwait News Agency (KUNA) that he had made such remarks in a lecture in a legal training program for young law graduates, organized by the Public Institution for Social Security, on economic and financial crimes.| Long time Rantburg readers may recognize the esteemed Clan Enezi, who are mostly bloodthirsty Wahhabists infesting Kuwait. This one seems to be ranting a bit like pre-Beer Hall Hitler... |
Economic crimes have been on the rampage because of the unstable global economic and political situation, especially in light of the dearth of administrative systems in the fight against such crimes, he said.
Economic crimes began to emerge prominently in the early 1990s due to an economic boom based on evolving technological changes, he said. Economic crimes are different from ordinary crimes in view of methods and motives, which seriously affect public funds, al-Enezi argued.
He elaborated economic crimes as a set of illicit activities targeting public interest. He recalled to memory that economic crimes initially appeared in the 1930s, taking up fresh forms and manifestations in the era of globalization. |
