The lawyer of the Shafi Al-Ajmi claims he has documents that prove his client’s actions were done under knowledge and approval of Kuwaiti government. As SRW reported last week The U.S. Department of the Treasury imposed sanctions on Al-Ajmi under Executive Order (E.O.) 13224 as of August 6th/2014. Treasury.gov stated “Al-Ajmi operates regular social media campaigns seeking donations for Syrian fighters and is one of the most active Kuwaiti fundraisers for ANF. In July 2014, he publicly admitted that he collected money under the auspices of charity and delivered the funds in person to ANF. Al-Ajmi also acknowledged purchasing and smuggling arms on behalf of ANF”. Al-Ajmi is responsible for slaughter of many Shia families in Syria by founding and encouraging Anti-Shiism. Defenddemocracy.org also reported” The latter al-Ajmi has implied that he supports slaughtering captured Shi’ite fighters, women, and children in Syria and had his preacher’s license suspended in August for radical invective on Syria and Egypt”
Muhammad bin Nasir, the lawyer of Shafi Al-Ajmi claimed his client operated under the full knowledge of the government. His claim came after the arrest of his clients by the Kuwaiti authorities. If bin Nasir publicized his claim, the Kuwaiti must explain his support for terrorist groups through Al-Ajmi and other like him.
As SRW has always emphasized all clerics in Islamic Nations are employees of their governments and the local authorities must be held responsible when such employees call for slaughter of minutes or engage in founding terrorist groups. The case of Al-Ajmi is yet another example and must be taken seriously.
All clerics who call for hatred are representatives of their governments and therefore Kuwait is in the shares the same crime as Al-Ajmi and must be punished in international human rights court.
