KUWAIT CITY: A group of former MPs have emphasized the need to continue peaceful movements, which call for respecting the people's rights and to end suppression of freedom; otherwise, the situation will get worse, reports Alam Alyawm daily.
The former lawmakers made the statement in a seminar at the diwaniya of Falah Al-Sawagh in Fintas recently. A large number of citizens, including the former lawmakers attended the seminar entitled, "Kuwait, Where To?"
Former National Assembly Speaker Ahmad Al-Saadoun warned the recent incidents pose a grave threat to the country, pointing out that the security officers' suppression of people's rights is an attempt to violate the Constitution.
On the other hand, Al-Sawagh confirmed that whatever they started will continue until the nullification of the incumbent Assembly as this is the only way to put everything back to normal.
Meanwhile, Ahmad Muteeh lamented the situation in the country continues to deteriorate and he wonders what lies ahead for the entire nation.
He asserted, "People are merely demanding for what is rightfully theirs and calling for the implementation of reforms, but the authorities have been using intimidation tactics against them, instead of supporting them.
