Sentence for Halima Boland Due to Her Photos

A Kuwaiti court has sentenced media figure and social media star Halima Boland to two years in prison due to her photos and videos. Local media reported today, Thursday, that the sentence was issued by the Criminal Court, which imposes two years of imprisonment with hard labor and a fine of 2,000 dinars on Boland for inciting immorality and vice. The sentence issued is preliminary and requires two levels of appeal before it becomes final and enforceable. The ruling against Boland came after an unnamed individual filed a complaint against her, claiming that she incited him to immorality through her photos and personal videos, according to the local newspaper "Al-Rai." It was unclear if the complainant had a personal relationship with Boland, but the Kuwaiti star alleged that he insulted her, and she filed a complaint against him for insult and misuse of a phone.
