Wife’s murderer admits crime

An Indian man who is still on the run after he allegedly killed his wife called his family and confessed to his crime, a security source said. Farwaniya police were approached by a relative of the suspect who said that the man informed his family that he chose to put an end to his ‘bothersome’ wife’s life because she was causing him so much trouble and asked for money all the time. The suspect also told his family that he planned to turn himself in soon, according to his relative.

Children left alone

A couple left their two children aged six and four in their Khaitan flat for no apparent reason, as Farwaniya security authorities handed them to their grandfather. The couple will be charged with negligence as they locked their two children inside the apartment and left for their home country. An Egyptian man had told police that his son and daughter-in-law disappeared two days earlier, so policemen went with him to the couple’s residence and found the door locked with the children inside. The grandfather broke the door open and found the children who were very scared. Investigations are ongoing.

Policeman arrested

The clip shows the policeman with a halfnaked girl, who can be heard saying “this is not right... Ramadan, Ramadan.” The clip reached police authorities who were able to identify the policeman and arrested him and the girl. Both are currently held pending further legal action.

Fraud

Three Kuwaiti girls in their early thirties formed a gang, stole civil IDs, changed their appearance to match with the civil ID photos, and then visited telecom and electronics companies to buy smart phones and video game devices then sold them, leaving the real ID holders in debt. Detectives received 17 cases from the original ID holders, and began their investigations. They followed the girls’ activities which led them to car rental agencies where they reviewed the tapes to identify the girls. Two were arrested, and police are looking for their third partner. —Translated from the Arabic press
