KUWAIT, 13th August, 2017 (WAM) -- Kuwait's Ministry of Interior announced on Sunday the capture of a 13th convict of the terror group known as 'Al Abdali Cell'.

The Kuwait News Agency, KUNA, reported that the ministry released a statement detailing the arrest of Mustafa Abdulnabi Ali Bader Khan, a Kuwaiti citizen sentenced to ten years imprisonment, as part of the ministry's efforts to execute the Court of Cessation's ruling.

Security bodies will continue its intensive search to capture the fourteenth missing individual, it added.

This latest arrest follows the ministry's capture of 12 missing Al Abdali Cell members on Saturday.

In September 2015, the public prosecutor indicted a number of individuals for acts that threatened national security and unity of Kuwait, KUNA added.

The defendants were accused of providing intelligence to Iran and Hezbollah, as well as housing weapons, ammunition and communication devices, the agency concluded.
