KUWAIT: Criminal investigations detectives arrested two people who committed several robberies in Khaitan and Farwaniya while impersonating as police detectives, the Interior Ministry’s Relations and Security Media Department announced yesterday. Case papers indicate that detectives had received several reports about robberies in which the culprits could not be identified, as they sometimes committed their robberies while impersonating as police detectives.

However, investigations evenly led to two Syrians, 31 and 25, who were arrested later on in Jleeb Al-Shuyiukh. The suspects admitted to committing six robberies, and that they impersonated as police detectives in four cases. They were sent to the proper authorities to face charges.
