In a startling case, a Sri Lankan woman residing in Kuwait used deceit to secure Kuwaiti citizenship by taking advantage of legal loopholes and identity scams.
Costa, originally a domestic worker, managed to exploit the system by posing as a mother through a forged pregnancy and using another woman’s baby to meet nationality law requirements. However, a recent DNA test exposed the truth, resulting in the cancellation of her citizenship.
This incident has prompted a closer look at Kuwait’s citizenship protocols and the potential misuse of sponsorship programs by foreign individuals.
