Two murder crimes were reported in Kuwait within the past 48 hours. In the first case, Farwaniya criminal investigators yesterday arrested a number of Arab expats for stabbing a compatriot to death yesterday at dawn, said security sources. Investigations showed that the suspect and his accomplices had gone to the victim’s house at dawn yesterday, where they had an argument, during which the suspect used a knife to stab the victim. The suspect then fled the scene, leaving the victim to bleed to death. The killer and his associates were arrested a few hours later. A case was filed and further investigations are in progress.
In the other case, a 28-year-old bedoon man shot another stateless resident, 33, dead with an AK-47 rifle. The suspect then gave himself up at Ferdous police station out of fear he may be killed by the victim’s family. The suspect said he saw the victim in a tailoring shop in Sulaibiya Co-op, so he got his rifle and shot him, saying that the killing was in revenge for killing his brother 15 years earlier, for which he was jailed for seven years. The victim’s body was recovered by the coroner, while the suspect was charged with murder.
