Stealing SAND? Really? SAND???? How much sand were they stealing? To be arrested for stealing sand? I mean, c'mon youse guys - isn't there enough sand in Kuwait?? Do you think you could just spare a little?
Now, "pounding sand" is quite a different issue....

builder's sand is so cheap anyway
maybe it was 'asking for a bribe' gone bad....
It probably really was'sand' sold in bags to use to make cement etc. The article is misleading (like every other article I have ever read here) Because Kuwait isn't full of sand it is DIRT.
