The Arab-European man had arrived in Kuwait on Sunday from a Gulf state on a visitor’s visa, but was sent back on the same plane after police discovered that a work permit he had previously applied in Kuwait was rejected as he was diagnosed with hepatitis. Meanwhile, a convict was held at the airport shortly after arriving from an Asian country after police discovered that he tried to use a forged passport to bypass a ban on his entry into Kuwait. The man was first placed under arrest and then sent back in the same plane after a fingerprint scan revealed that he was same person who was earlier deported over prostitution charges.
