തൊഴിൽ വിപണിയിലെ ഏറ്റക്കുറച്ചിലുകളും നയപരമായ മാറ്റങ്ങളും പ്രതിഫലിപ്പിച്ചുകൊണ്ട് കുവൈറ്റി നിവാസികൾ അല്ലാത്തവരുടെ എണ്ണം 1.56 ശതമാനം കുറഞ്ഞ് 3,315,086 ആയി. ഈ കുറവ് ഉണ്ടായിരുന്നിട്ടും, ഇപ്പോഴും ജനസംഖ്യയുടെ 68 ശതമാനമാണ്. ലിംഗഭേദം കണക്കിലെടുക്കുമ്പോൾ, പുരുഷന്മാരുടെ എണ്ണം 1.1 ശതമാനം കുറഞ്ഞ് 2,987,971 ആയി, ഇത് ജനസംഖ്യയുടെ ഏകദേശം 61 ശതമാനമാണ്, അതേസമയം സ്ത്രീകൾ 1,893,283 അല്ലെങ്കിൽ ഏകദേശം 39 ശതമാനത്തിൽ ഏതാണ്ട് സ്ഥിരത പുലർത്തുന്നു.

കുവൈത്തിൽ തൊഴിലാളിക്ക് ശമ്പളം നിഷേധിച്ചു; കമ്പനി ഉടമയ്ക്ക് വൻതുക ദിനാർ പിഴ

കുവൈത്ത് സിറ്റി: തൊഴിലാളിക്ക് ശമ്പളം നൽകാത്ത കമ്പനി ഉടമയ്ക്ക് 5,000 ദിനാർ പിഴ ചുമത്തി കുവൈത്ത് ഫസ്റ്റ് ഇൻസ്റ്റൻസ് കോടതി. പുതിയ താമസ നിയമത്തിലെ ആർട്ടിക്കിൾ 19 അടിസ്ഥാനമാക്കിയാണ് കോടതിയുടെ ഈ സുപ്രധാന വിധി.

തൊഴിലുടമക്കെതിരെ പബ്ലിക് പ്രോസിക്യൂഷൻ നൽകിയ കേസിൽ അന്വേഷണം നടത്തിയപ്പോഴാണ് ഈ വിവരം പുറത്തുവന്നത്. ജോലി ചെയ്ത കാലയളവിലെ ശമ്പളം നൽകാൻ തൊഴിലുടമ തയ്യാറാകാത്തതിനെ തുടർന്നാണ് കേസ് ഫയൽ ചെയ്തത്. തൊഴിലാളിയുടെ തൊഴിലുടമയും മാനേജരും കേസിൽ പ്രതികളാണെന്ന് അന്വേഷണത്തിൽ വ്യക്തമായി.

പുതിയ താമസ നിയമത്തിലെ വ്യവസ്ഥകൾ അനുസരിച്ച് വിദേശ തൊഴിലാളികളെ റിക്രൂട്ട് ചെയ്ത ആവശ്യത്തിനല്ലാതെ ഉപയോഗിക്കുന്നതും, ലൈസൻസില്ലാതെ മറ്റുള്ളവർക്ക് വേണ്ടി ജോലി ചെയ്യാൻ അനുവദിക്കുന്നതും, അവരുടെ ശമ്പളം തടഞ്ഞുവെക്കുന്നതും കുറ്റകരമാണ്. ഈ നിയമലംഘനങ്ങൾക്കെതിരെ കർശന നടപടിയുണ്ടാകുമെന്ന് അധികൃതർ മുന്നറിയിപ്പ് നൽകി.

ഓൺലൈൻ ട്രേഡിങ് തട്ടിപ്പ്, ലാഭം വാ​ഗ്ദാനം ചെയ്ത് മുൻ പ്രവാസിയെ കുടുക്കി: പോയത് 3 കോടി

ഹരിപ്പാട് (ആലപ്പുഴ): ഓൺലൈൻ ട്രേഡിങ്ങിലൂടെ വലിയ ലാഭം വാഗ്ദാനം ചെയ്ത് മുൻ പ്രവാസിയിൽ നിന്ന് കോടികൾ തട്ടിയെടുത്തു. ഹരിപ്പാട് സ്വദേശിയായ ഗോപിനാഥനാണ് മൂന്ന് കോടി രൂപ നഷ്ടമായത്. സംഭവത്തിൽ പെരിന്തൽമണ്ണ ഏലംകുളം സ്വദേശി അബ്ദുൾ നാസറിനെ (45) പോലീസ് അറസ്റ്റ് ചെയ്തു.

ജൂണിൽ 5,000 രൂപ നിക്ഷേപിച്ചാണ് ഗോപിനാഥൻ ട്രേഡിങ് ആരംഭിച്ചത്. തുടർന്ന്, അബ്ദുൾ നാസർ നൽകിയ വിവിധ ബാങ്ക് അക്കൗണ്ടുകളിലേക്ക് പല തവണയായി മൂന്ന് കോടി രൂപ അയച്ചു. ഓഗസ്റ്റ് 20-നാണ് അവസാനമായി ഒന്നര ലക്ഷം രൂപ കൈമാറിയത്.

പണം തിരികെ ലഭിക്കാതെ വന്നതോടെ ഗോപിനാഥൻ സൈബർ സെല്ലിലും ഹരിപ്പാട് പോലീസിലും പരാതി നൽകുകയായിരുന്നു. ഇതേത്തുടർന്നാണ് പോലീസ് അന്വേഷണം നടത്തി പ്രതിയെ പിടികൂടിയത്.
