Student Defending Bullying Victim Stabbed Six Times by Classmates

Published

on

KUWAIT CITY, May 31: A violent assault involving two tenth-grade students has left a classmate seriously injured and hospitalized in the intensive care unit at Al-Adan Hospital. The attack, classified as a felony assault, was recorded by Abu Halifa Police Station and has sent shockwaves through the local school community.

According to security sources, the incident occurred on Thursday shortly after students finished their final exams at a school in the Mangaf area. The two suspects confronted their classmate near a grocery store just outside the school premises. In a sudden and calculated assault, each of the attackers wielded a knife and stabbed the victim six times, once in the upper chest, once in the back, and once in the left hand, among other wounds.

Preliminary investigations suggest the motive was retaliation. The victim had earlier intervened to defend a fellow student who was being bullied by the suspects for a speech impediment. He reportedly reprimanded them, urging them to stop their mockery and leave the classmate alone, an act of courage that may have provoked the violent reprisal.

The injured student was rushed to Al-Adan Hospital, where he was admitted to the ICU due to the severity of the stab wounds. Doctors later stabilized his condition and transferred him to a general ward.

Security forces acted swiftly, with detectives apprehending the suspects and referring them to the Juvenile Prosecution Office for further legal action.

Speaking on behalf of the victim, attorney Abdulrahman Al-Huwaishil condemned the attack and voiced concern over the growing trend of violence among students. He called on education and security authorities to address this alarming phenomenon with urgency.

“This was not just a schoolyard fight; it was a deliberate, premeditated act of violence,” said Al-Huwaishil. “We will seek the maximum legal penalties available to ensure justice is served and to deter future incidents of this nature.”

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.
