KUWAIT: Legal sources said Deputy Premier and Defense Minister Sheikh Ahmad Al-Mansour filed a complaint with regards to suspected violations in the Eurofighter jet deal. Sources said the complaint is related to the involvement of several senior officials including a former minister and current and retired officials of the ministry.

Sources said the most notable thing in the complaint is accusing some officials of profiteering and deliberately inflating sums of defense contracts to benefit from funds spent by the state, in addition to overstepping their authorities and not receiving the required approvals, which caused great harm to public funds. - Al-Rai
