Girl leaps to death from 14th floor

KUWAIT: A 22-year-old Egyptian girl put an end to her psychological problem by jumping from the 14th floor of a Salmiya building where she lived with her family. Paramedics recovered her body and sent it to the coroner. An investigation was opened into the case.

Drug possession

Jahra police arrested two men and two women under the influence of drugs, and found a mixture of drugs on them. The four were in an abnormal state inside a car parked in front of a restaurant. A security source said the suspects were arrested with shabu (methamphetamine), hashish and paraphernalia. They were sent to concerned authorities.

Threats

A man who is abroad for treatment threatened and insulted citizens over the phone, so the people that he threatened filed complaints against him at Rawdha police station. Detectives were able to determine his identity and placed his name on the wanted list.

Suspect caught

An Egyptian man was arrested at Kuwait International Airport after police discovered that he is wanted for stealing cars, then dismantling and selling them in Salmiya scrap yard. The man was arrested upon his arrival. A citizen had parked his car in front of a garage at night and called the garage’s worker to repair it in the morning, but the worker told him the car was missing. The car’s owner informed Shuwaikh police afterwards. Capital detectives worked on the case and found out that an Egyptian (1979) had sold it in Salmiya. The man’s name was placed on the wanted list, and was arrested upon his arrival. He said he used a tow truck to move the cars.

Kidnap threat

Detectives arrested a Pakistani man for threatening to kidnap a woman of the same nationality because she rejected him, and he justified his actions by saying she refused to marry him. The woman told Hawally police about what happened and gave them the details of the alleged suspect. The man did not respond to their calls so detectives were asked to arrest him.

Drug addicts detained

A citizen went after two people who were under the influence of drugs during the day in Ramadan. He gave police their location, and both were arrested as police found the ‘Spice’ drug on them. The citizen who was at a gas station after the Fajr prayer noticed two people who were in an abnormal state, so he called police and went after the two until police arrived and caught them. A security source said officers asked for an ambulance which took the two to hospital to receive treatment, before they were sent to concerned authorities. — Translated from the Arabic press
