KUWAIT CITY, April 29: The Criminal Court has sentenced a Kuwaiti citizen to death for the premeditated murder of his house driver, whose body was discovered buried near the Umm Al-Ghara scrap yard. The case came to light after authorities received a tip about a man discarding blood-stained clothing in a trash bin in Saad Al-Abdullah.

Following the report, the Criminal Security Sector, represented by the Jahra Governorate Investigations Department, launched an immediate investigation. Surveillance footage helped identify a suspect who was seen disposing of the clothes.

During interrogation, the suspect confessed to killing his driver and dumping the body in a desert area behind the scrap yard. He led investigators to the site where the body was found. The victim was confirmed to have been working as the suspect’s house driver. A criminal case was filed, and the accused was referred to the competent authorities for prosecution.

KUWAIT CITY, July 3: A long-running legal battle stemming from a violent incident at the Salmi border has concluded, with three officers paying KD45,000 in compensation to a citizen they assaulted in front of his family. The case, which was first reported by the daily in October 2020, involved a physical altercation between the citizen and the officers at the border checkpoint. The Court of Appeals had earlier issued a final criminal ruling, fining the defendants. Attorney Dr. Obaid Al-Enezi, who represented the victim, secured a separate civil ruling from the Court of Appeals granting temporary compensation of KD5,001. The full settlement amount was paid before the filing of a final civil compensation suit.
