Published

on

KUWAIT CITY, May 27: In a chilling courtroom plea, the Public Prosecution has demanded the maximum penalty for a man accused of brutally murdering a Kuwaiti citizen in his fifties inside his own home in Jabriya late last year.

During the Criminal Court session, Director of Jahra Prosecution, Fahad Nayef Al-Mutairi, delivered a powerful argument, describing the crime as calculated and merciless. “This was no ordinary act,” Al-Mutairi told the court. “The killer planned, pursued, and executed the victim inside the sanctity of his own home, in full view of his helpless mother. This is a crime that admits no excuse, and demands no mercy.”

Al-Mutairi further emphasized the broader societal impact of the crime, calling it “a message of terror” that shattered the sense of safety even within one’s own home. He urged the court to ensure justice through the harshest sentence possible, saying, “Justice is a sacred duty, and retribution is the only way to bring peace to the victim’s family and deter future violence.”

According to case details, the defendant, reportedly a traveler, entered the victim’s residence, initiated a confrontation, and fatally shot the man with three bullets. The victim died in his mother’s arms, adding to the emotional gravity of the case.

The trial continues as the court deliberates on the prosecution’s demand for the maximum sentence

KUWAIT CITY, May 28: In a continued crackdown on financial crimes, the Financial Crimes Combating Department of Kuwait’s Criminal Security Sector has arrested a Nepalese national accused of involvement in a sophisticated bank fraud operation. The suspect was wanted in connection with two cases — No. 2253/2024 and No. 2234/2024 — both related to banking fraud.

Authorities uncovered the scam after discovering that the suspect had been purchasing bank cards and SIM cards from individuals within his community. During a precautionary search, officers seized eight bank cards and four SIM cards from his possession. Upon interrogation, he confessed to possessing additional items at his residence. A subsequent search led to the confiscation of 12 more bank cards, 16 SIM cards, and a number of bank documents and blank SIM cards. The suspect admitted that he supplied these cards to an accomplice who shipped them abroad for use in fraudulent schemes aimed at stealing money from unsuspecting victims.

The accused has been referred to the Public Prosecution, and legal action is underway. Investigations are being expanded, and authorities are coordinating with international counterparts to identify and apprehend additional suspects involved in the operation.
