Her Ultimate Sacrifice Was Met With a Crushing Betrayal

KUWAIT CITY, July 28: A Kuwaiti woman has filed a shocking lawsuit seeking divorce and financial compensation after donating a kidney to her husband, only for him to marry another woman and subject her to physical abuse.

The plaintiff’s lawyer, Hawra Al-Habib, revealed the heartbreaking details, saying: “Marrying another woman alone isn’t grounds for divorce. But when a wife gives her husband a part of her body ( a kidney ), the very organ that keeps him alive, and then he turns around and beats her, it breaks her heart and makes living together impossible.”

Al-Habib confirmed she will be demanding compensation for the emotional and psychological trauma her client has endured, emphasizing that violence is never a form of discipline, whether for adults or children, and is strictly forbidden.

She added, “The relationship has been insulted and degraded. One party offered loyalty and selflessness, while the other responded with betrayal and cruelty. Some couples manage to rebuild after separation, but no relationship can survive when one partner is insulted for no reason.”

This case highlights the devastating consequences of betrayal and abuse in what should have been a loving marriage.

‘Fake News’ Lands Activist Behind Bars For 3 Years

KUWAIT CITY, July 28: The Criminal Court, presided over by Counselor Nayef Al-Dahoum, sentenced an activist involved in the “Bedoun” case, identified only as “MB,” to three years in prison with hard labor, followed by deportation after serving his sentence, on charges of broadcasting false news.

In its ruling, the court emphasized that disseminating news, especially content that damages the prestige and reputation of the state, requires careful verification and investigation. However, the defendant was found to have exceeded these limits by publishing material intended to incite public opinion against Kuwait.

The court noted that the defendant claimed he had no evidence of the work carried out by the Central Agency for Stateless (Bedoun), expecting state agencies to provide him with reports and updates on demand. Yet, his defense relied solely on unsubstantiated and scattered allegations, which the court said were based on distorted perceptions rather than facts. These claims led to unjust conclusions that contradicted Kuwait’s established commitment to human rights, ultimately undermining the state’s prestige and reputation.

The court further asserted that the accused’s actions were not aimed at reform but rather amounted to sedition and the promotion of widespread corruption. As such, it was justified in convicting him and imposing a single sentence—the harsher penalty for the more serious charge.

Regarding the defendant’s plea for leniency, the court rejected the request, citing his criminal record, which showed previous convictions where leniency had been granted but failed to deter him from repeating offenses.
