KUWAIT: Residency detectives busted five companies that renewed their commercial licenses at the commerce ministry with the use of forged documents. Some of the companies obtained 67 forged residencies based on the said licenses. The department discovered that Shafi Motan, a Kuwaiti, carried out the renewal through forgery in the computer data. Information was received about five companies that were closed after their licenses had expired for more than a year, which means the licenses are automatically cancelled, but they were renewed. Through investigations, it was found that Motan was the employee who carried out the renewals.
