The questions of the Emirati artist, Ahlam, through social networking sites, caused an uproar in Kuwait, after she expressed her annoyance about her stone in Kuwait 72 hours or 3 days before she was able to leave, despite taking the necessary measures and vaccinating against Corona, while the Qatari artist Fahd Al Kubaisi left the next day.
Emirati artist Ahlam published 3 videos to her followers on her official page on a social networking site, because of what she considered “discrimination in treatment” after her stone in Kuwait. Qatari artist Fahd Al-Kubaisi responded to her, and the authorities also took an urgent decision.
And the artist, Ahlam, sent a message to the Emir of Kuwait, Sheikh Nawaf Al-Ahmad and his Crown Prince, Sheikh Mishaal Al-Ahmad, during which she wondered why the quarantine was imposed on her for 3 days, unlike the Qatari artist Al-Kubaisi.
And she redirected her letter to the Minister of Defense Hamad Jaber Al-Ali Al-Sabah, demanding that she disclose the reason for preventing her from leaving, even though she had come on a private plane and would not endanger the lives of others, while Al-Kubaisi was on a Qatar Airways plane.
The Kuwaiti authorities have opened an investigation to uncover the circumstances, and to ensure that the law is applied to everyone fairly, without discrimination.
While the artist, Fahd Al-Kubaisi, went out through his Twitter account to explain the measures he took during his travels to Kuwait.
He said that upon his arrival in Kuwait, they asked him for a vaccination certificate and a PCR certificate, and his passport was stamped, explaining that he did a PCR examination again before attending one of the wedding parties, and then left Kuwait after the ceremony to return to Qatar.
