KUWAIT CITY, June 11: An investigator at the Hawally Police Station has ordered the summoning of a Kuwaiti citizen for questioning in a case involving allegations of verbally insulting a government employee. The case stems from a complaint filed by a female staff member at the Ministry of Health. The investigator has also requested that Hawally detectives conduct further inquiries and re-interview the complainant, the accused, and any witnesses involved.
According to a security source, the complainant, a 37-year-old employee of the Ministry of Health, reported that while she was performing her official duties, a Kuwaiti citizen approached her requesting a name change on his brother’s birth certificate. After reviewing the documents, she informed him that the application was incomplete and additional paperwork was needed to process the request.
She stated that the man appeared dissatisfied with her response, prompting her to direct him to a colleague at the counter. At that point, she alleged, he raised his voice and insulted her, saying mockingly, “You are a maid serving here.” The employee cited her colleague as a witness to the incident.
The source added that the witness, a 39-year-old Kuwaiti citizen, confirmed hearing the man yell but could not recall the exact words spoken clearly. The investigation is ongoing.
