Rapporteur of the Interior and Defense Parliamentary Committee Nayef Al-Murdas asked the Interior minister to check driving licenses granted to expatriates as according to him, some 30,000 forged licenses were obtained by circumventing the law.
Al-Murdas also suggested that driving licenses should not be renewed unless the files of the holders have been checked thoroughly amid the mechanism of issuance of their licenses- whether it was done in accordance with legal procedures set by the Ministry of Interior or not. He also said that the license should be withdrawn and the perpetrators held accountable.
