KUWAIT: DEATH SENTENCE AWARDED TO KUWAITI FOR MURDERING MAID

25 June 2012 :

In Kuwait, a citizen was sentenced to death for murdering his Nepalese housemaid. Case papers indicate that the 33-year-old soldier was arrested for bludgeoning his housemaid to death and burying her at Mina Abdullah desert.
However, stray dogs began feeding on the corpse.
The man defended his act by claiming that the domestic worker used to ill-treat his children.
