Indian national, hailing from Kerala, was taken into custody for posting inflammatory religious post on his Facebook. Fahaheel police came to the restaurant where he was working as a restaurant supervisor and took him into custody for publishing a post, which insult the religions sentiments.

He posted the content as part of a debate on the ongoing CAB issue in India. A group of people came to his work place and reported the matter to his owner and later to the authorities.

It is common that many Indians are now posting their opinion supporting and opposing the CAB act. However, Kuwait have “zero tolerance approach” towards potentially inflammatory religious content on Social media including YouTube, Twitter, Facebook and WhatsApp. It is strongly advisable that Indians should stay away from posting inflammatory religious contents on social media and respect the law of the land.
