This article seeks to send a warning message to everyone, especially new expatriates to Kuwait who do not know the state’s laws and are in danger of being involved in a forgery crime here, leading to prison, deportation and of course losing more mon- ey. I think expat victims assume citizens may be pro- tected by law and wasta, but the whole thing is a dangerous ride and not worth it. News of fraud has become widespread, even though these crimes are very perilous and the pun- ishment is great. When a gang falls, everyone falls - those who deceived others and those who were involved in the crime. The arrest operation began when the Criminal The old ‘Souq Wajif.’ Investigation Department received information about a Kuwaiti falsifying salary certificates of a KUWAIT: The old markets of Kuwait are replete with ancient Safat Square and extending north before Al-Gharabally market’s government institution and major airlines, and also memories, representing a vital aspect of Kuwait’s life and econ- entrance. Jamal added that the market was a tight, narrow stucco, facilitating loans from banks and companies for omy. Among these old markets was Souq Wajif, perhaps one of where some women and temporary vendors sat to sell their money. After obtaining a warrant from the public the most important markets of ancient Kuwait. On the subject, goods as they stumbled across the land and put their goods on prosecution, the suspects were arrested.

Al-Hareem Market differs from Souq Wajif as the first was after forged documents were submitted. I think that tools and some household utensils, especially kitchen utensils, located east of Safat Square, close to the site of the old public what is happening today is a lack of awareness of knives and dishes, pointing out that some women in the market security from the east and is the property of Sheikh Sabah the law.

The arrested gang knew exactly what was required, because when they were arrested, they had a number of certificates ready for delivery for the agreed amount. I believe that research into the causes of the spread and rise of these crimes is important, because it is possible that there is a belief that these actions realize quick profits, even as some said they didn’t know it was a crime punishable by law. It is known that fraud is often rampant with regards to university degrees to benefit from job promotions or driving licenses, but this has extended to making false papers to take money from banks. The arrest of the suspects has dashed everyone’s hopes.

The article covers the phenomenon of rock music in the lives of young residents of the western regions of Soviet Ukraine, which differed significantly from the rest of the territory of the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic and the entire USSR. The article demonstrates the peculiarities among which this music was mastered, its existence in the youth society – from fashionable dance music to the core of nonconformitsm to the Soviet system. It was reflected in the names officially and unofficially used for rock music and its performers (Big beat, vocal-instrumental ensemble, etc.), as well as in relation to official factors (from tolerance to the prohibition). Consumers of rock music did not necessarily have to be opposed to the Soviet regime. However, the active “immersion” in rock music, and the related counterculture spheres (from the late 1960s onwards, and more and more), contributed to the formation of an alternative life style, which manifested itself in particular: listening to banned radio stations, the style of clothing that was associated with rock music, space for free performance / listening to rock music and exchanging information and impressions (“tusovka”).
