Mistaken Identity - Syrian Mother Of Two Faces Deportation For Begging
Abu Ali, a Syrian resident of Kuwait, of age 29 years and with a clean record, was shocked after knowing his wife could get deported after a police officer, who was in search for a Jordanian woman who was caught begging in front of Jahra Hospital, had arrested his wife instead of the beggar, reports Al-Rai daily.
He visited the headquarters of the daily to narrate his situation, explaining that his wife, who is seven- months pregnant, often visits a private clinic but on Aug 14, she decided to visit a gynecologist in Jahra Hospital. He dropped her there, and asked her to call him when she was done with the visit.
After her blood pressure and pulse were recorded, the gynecologist told her she must have a referral from the clinic, so she called her husband and told him she will be waiting in front of a cooperative society near the hospital.
Meanwhile, a policeman received a tip about a Jordanian woman who was seen begging in front of the hospital. He arrived at the location, and he, under the belief that Abu Ali’s wife is the beggar, arrested her even though she told him her nationality.
Abu Ali went on to say he was unable to find his wife, and after a short time, a policeman called him and said she would be deported for begging even though she had presented all documents to prove the time she underwent medical examination in the hospital.
He stressed that his financial status is good, but nobody listened to him, adding that a policeman visited him in his workplace and took his wife’s passport, informing him that she would be deported on Sept 27.
Abo Ali said, “My wife is a mother of two children aged 12 and one. We have been living in Kuwait for a long time. Begging is a disgrace and we do not carry out any shameful acts or violate the laws of the country where we live”.
He urges Minister of Interior Sheikh Khalid Al-Jarrah and Undersecretary Lieutenant General Essam Al-Naham to help save his wife and open an investigation into this incident so that his wife can return to the family.
