Five Kuwaiti nationals were arrested, including a police- man and a woman, who all confessed to plotting attacks against a Shiite mosque and an Interior Ministry target, the Ministry said in a statement. All members of the three cells also confessed to being members of the Islamic State jihadist group. Kuwaiti police are still looking for a Gulf man and an Asian who assisted one of the cells, the Ministry said. The action against the Islamist cells comes a year after an IS-linked Saudi suicide bomber blew himself up in a Shiite mosque, killing 26 worshippers in the worst Hessa Abdullah Ali Mohammad Omar Talal Naif Raja attack in Kuwait. A court sentenced one man to death and jailed eight others for assisting the Saudi bomber. Among those arrested in the latest police action was 18-year-old Talal Raja who confessed to have been plot- ting a suicide attack against a Shiite mosque and an Interior Ministry installation by the end of the Muslim fasting month of Ramadan today, the ministry said. The second cell consisted of a mother and son who were arrested in Syria in the IS-controlled Riga and brought back to Kuwait, the Ministry said. It provided no details of how they were arrested. The 28-year-old son had cut short his petroleum engineering study in Britain to join the IS after his younger brother was killed while fighting for the group in Iraq, the Ministry said.
