Man arrested for offering women non-existent jobs in return for sex 7 kilos hashish with 3 drug peddlers
KUWAIT CITY, Aug 25: Police have arrested an unidentified man for forcing a Bedoun woman to have sex with him inside his house in Abdullah Al-Mubarak area, reports Al-Watan Arabic daily.
A police source said the suspect put up advertisements to recruit female workers, only to deceive the applicants and force them to engage in immoral acts inside his apartment.
Recently, the suspect met a Bedoun woman, living in the same building, and convinced her to make friends with his wife. The woman and her four-year-old son then visited the suspect, but his wife was not at home, so he allegedly raped her after convincing the boy to play an electronic game in another room.
7 kilos hashish with 3 drug peddlers: Anti-narcotics officers on Tuesday arrested two Kuwaitis and a GCC national for trading in drugs with seven kilograms of hashish in their possession.
Acting on a tip-off, Director General of the Drug Control General Department (DCGD) Major General Sheikh Ahmad Al-Khalifa asked a team of officers to put one of the Kuwaitis under surveillance. After gathering enough evidence, the team asked an undercover agent to purchase hashish worth KD300 from the suspect, who agreed to meet the agent in Sulaibiya. He was arrested upon completion of the bogus transaction with half kilo of hashish in his possession.
During interrogation, the Kuwaiti admitted the crime and told police that he trades in drugs with a GCC national, who was staying at a hotel in Farwaniya. He then guided police to the hotel where they found the GCC national with another Kuwaiti. Police also found six and a half kilos of hashish inside the hotel room.
When police questioned the GCC national, he revealed that he and his partner — the Kuwaiti who was with him at the hotel — are selling drugs on behalf of an inmate at the Central Jail.
The three suspects were referred to the concerned authorities for prosecution, while the anti-narcotics officers started investigations to verify the GCC national’s claim that they are working for a Central Jail inmate.
