Mohammed Sanousi or Mohammed Nasser Al-Sanousi (Arabic: محمد ناصر السنعوسي, 1937/1938 – 15 November 2022)[2][3][4] was a Kuwaiti director, producer, media personality and politician who served for eight months as Kuwait's Minister of Information, taking the post in April 2006 and resigning on 17 December.
Al-Sanousi became a controversial figure during the 2006 parliamentary election, during which he ordered several satellite television channels supporting opposition parties to be taken off the air.
[6] MP Mohammed Al-Sager pledged that the opposition bloc would not allow Al-Sanousi to be reappointed due to restrictions he had allegedly placed on press freedoms.
[6] Al-Sanousi resigned on 17 December 2006, one day before he was due to be grilled by parliament.
Opposition MP Musallam Al-Barrak suggested Al-Sanousi had been forced to quit, calling it "a victory for the constitution, democracy and freedom".
