[Darius]

Te gjithe e njohim mire nocionin Pranvera Arabe ku pame sesi vende te botes arabe u ndezen njera pas tjetres ne protesta te fuqishme antiqeveritare, ku pame shembje te qeverive dhe vrasje te lidereve, protestuesve e forcave policore e ushtarake. Vende si Egjypti, Tunisia, Libia etj ishin pjesa dominuese e te ashtuquajtures Pranvera Arabe. Por duket qe kjo e fundit se ka mbyllur llogarine me vendet arabe. Sipas lajmeve te djeshme e te sotme, Kuwait, nje nga vendet me te pasura te Gjirit Persik eshte ndezur nga protesta te fuqishme te drejtuara nga ish lideri i oposites Musallam al-Barak i cili zbuloi korrupsionin ne rradhet e elites dhe te lidereve duke kerkuar arrestimin e ketyre te fundit. Kjo shkaktoi nje zemerim masiv ne popull dhe me qindra protestues u sulen neper rruge ne mbeshtetje te al-Barrack etj. Forcat policore qelluan me plumba plastik dhe bomba me gaz lotsjelles.Qeveria nga ana e saj akuzon al-Barrack per shpifje dhe i eshte kerkuar qe te paraqitet ne nje proces gjyqesor ku te vertetohen akuzat e tij...

Same stuff... different country. Once again someone (former opposition leader Musallam al-Barrak) exposed the corruption among the elites (revealed documents that allegedly prove billions of illicit financial transfers were made to senior officials, including judges) and the leaders (Kuwait officials) decided he should be arrested and charged with slander. This has caused uproar among the people as hundreds of protesters rallied overnight in support of al-Barrack, marching from his house to the jail chanting: "The people want to cleanse the judiciary!" The police in the oil-rich nation of Kuwait used tear gas and stun grenades early Thursday to disperse the protesters.



As The Daily Star reports,

Kuwaiti police fired teargas and stun grenades to disperse an opposition rally demanding the release of prominent dissident Mussallam al-Barrak, activists said Thursday.



The public prosecutor Wednesday ordered Barrak, a former MP, to be held for 10 days after he was questioned for allegedly insulting the judiciary.



The court turned down Thursday a petition filed by Barrak's lawyers to release him until his trial, defense lawyer Thamer al-Jadaei wrote on his Twitter account.



The court set a July 7 date to start hearing the case against Barrak, who is charged with insulting the supreme judicial council and slander against its chairman.



Soon after the court's rejection, the opposition went into an emergency meeting to decide on further action.



Thousands of people gathered at Barrak's residence southwest of Kuwait City Wednesday night and marched on the nearby jail where the former opposition leader was detained, the activists said.



Police intervened when hundreds of protesters reached the prison, firing teargas and stun grenades to disperse them. There were no reports of any casualties.



Smaller protests were also reportedly staged in other parts of the oil-rich Gulf state.



The opposition leader is accused of slandering and insulting the supreme judicial council and its chairman, Faisal al-Marshed, in remarks made at a public rally on June 10.



Opposition groups strongly criticized the legal action against him as unlawful and "politically motivated."



At the rally, Barrak charged that former senior officials, including ruling family members, had stolen tens of billions of dollars from public funds and engaged in money laundering.
