Delivery Man Assaulted And Strangled Inside Residence

Published

on

KUWAIT CITY, March 30: In a bizarre incident, a delivery worker was attacked by an unknown assailant, dragged into a residence, beaten, and even strangled before being released.

In the case, registered at Al-Shaab Police Station under the title “Major Physical Assault,” a 36-year-old expatriate delivery man was assaulted. According to a security source, the victim stated that a plate of dessert was ordered and assigned to him to deliver to Block 8 in Al-Shaab.

Approximately an hour later, the store management informed him that the customer had complained and requested a replacement order—free of charge. The delivery man complied, but upon arriving at the address, he was confronted by the same individual who had received the initial order.

“He told me to either leave or call the police,” the victim recounted. “Then, without warning, he grabbed me by my clothes, dragged me into the apartment, beat me, and strangled me.”

The complainant confirmed that he did not know the attacker but provided his phone number and described him as a fair-skinned, short man with long hair and a beard. The motive behind the assault remains unclear—whether it stemmed from frustration over the delayed delivery or dissatisfaction with the order itself. The victim submitted a medical report documenting his injuries as evidence. Investigations into the incident are ongoing.

Cops Catch Fleeing Suspect With Narcotics, Booze, And Big Cash

Seized items along with the accused were referred to the authorities

KUWAIT CITY, July 21: A man in his thirties was caught red-handed in a dramatic drug bust in Sharq area after trying to resist arrest.

Police patrols spotted the suspect behaving erratically while driving a four-wheel-drive vehicle. As officers approached, the man attempted to flee the scene, triggering a tense pursuit. But the chase didn’t last long; the patrol quickly forced the vehicle to a halt.

Upon searching the vehicle and the suspect, officers discovered a damning stash: two bottles of alcohol, a quantity of narcotics, and a suspicious bundle of KD 1,000 in cash. The man, described by police as being in an “intoxicated state,” was immediately arrested on suspicion of drug use and possession.

The seized items were confiscated, and the accused was handed over to the General Department for Drug Control, where he now faces serious charges related to drug and alcohol possession.

Police sources say the quick response and alertness of the patrol team helped prevent what could have been a dangerous situation on the road.

Egyptian Stole Half a Million… Then Opened a Beauty Clinic — Now He’s in Kuwait Jail

KUWAIT CITY, July 21: The Court of Cassation has sentenced an Egyptian national to 10 years in prison with hard labor for charges of breach of trust, embezzlement, and money laundering during his time as a financial manager at the Kuwait Teachers Association.

In addition to the prison term, the court ordered the defendant to pay a fine of approximately KD 1 million and ruled that he be deported from the country upon completion of his sentence.

The case dates back to 2018, when the accused was found to have manipulated the association’s accounts, repeatedly increasing his own salary, issuing unauthorized payments, and disbursing checks that bounced. Investigations revealed that he had exploited his position to issue five unapproved checks and embezzled over KD 500,000, which he funneled into a private business venture.

The stolen funds were allegedly used to open a cosmetic clinic, which generated over KD 400,000 in profits. The court viewed this as a clear case of laundering illicit gains under the guise of legitimate investment.

The final ruling brings an end to a high-profile case that highlighted serious breaches of financial oversight within the association.
