Son Murders Mother Who Devoted Her Life to Him

Published

KUWAIT CITY, May 22: The Criminal Court is currently hearing a harrowing case involving a 28-year-old Kuwaiti citizen accused of murdering his own mother and fatally injuring his 10-year-old brother in the Sabah Al-Salem area. The accused has reportedly confessed to the crime, stating that he was under the influence of drugs (crystal meth) at the time and attacked his mother after she refused to give him money to buy drugs.

According to his statement, the refusal “drove him crazy,” prompting him to stab his mother to death. When his younger brother witnessed the scene, the accused allegedly turned the knife on him as well, inflicting serious injuries.

During a session before the court, Deputy Director of the Jahra Prosecution, Mohammed Talal Al-Hajri, delivered a powerful plea, calling for the maximum penalty—the death sentence—for what he described as a heinous and deeply disturbing crime.

“This is the case of a mother who devoted her life, her health, and her youth to raising her son, only for her life to be ended at his hands,” Al-Hajri told the court. “There can be no leniency in applying the law to anyone who dares to take a sacred life.”

The prosecutor emphasized the overwhelming clarity of the evidence against the accused, describing it as forming “a fabric of certainty and conviction, without doubt or ambiguity.” He characterized the crime as not merely a violent act, but a betrayal of the fundamental human values of kinship and sanctity of life.

“This was not an enemy killing an enemy, or a rival settling a score,” Al-Hajri said. “It was a son murdering his own mother. This crime is a wound to the heart of humanity and an affront to divine law. It strips away the sanctity that all religions and moral codes place on life.”

Calling it a “real tragedy” that reflects the depths of human depravity, the prosecution urged the court to deliver a just and firm verdict: “We ask this honorable court to uphold justice, and to impose the death penalty on the accused. It is the only punishment befitting such a monstrous crime.”

The brutal incident has shocked the nation. The 48-year-old mother died at the scene, while the younger brother was left in critical condition following the attack. Authorities have completed their investigation, and the trial continues as the public awaits the court’s final judgment.
