KUWAIT CITY, April 13: Police arrested a 16-year-old disabled Kuwaiti for stabbing his sister with a knife.
According to the suspect’s father — who also happens to be disabled, his son arrived at the house and volunteered to accompany him in taking the other children to school. However, the suspect’s behavior suddenly changed on their way to the school and threatened to kill his sister. Thinking that he was just joking, nobody paid attention to his threat but when they reached the school and his sister was about to get down from the car, he suddenly stabbed her with a knife. The father allegedly asked the principal of the school to call the securitymen but she refused and told him to take his daughter to the hospital. Afraid that his son might enter the school and carry out his threat, the father sought the assistance of the principal but his appeal fell on deaf ears even if his daughter has been bleeding for more than two hours. When he found out that his son had left the premises, he took his daughter to Amiri Hospital.

A case was registered against the suspect at Daiya Police Station and the officers immediately launched a manhunt, resulting in his arrest. During interrogation, the suspect told the officers the Ministry of Education officials should take the necessary action against the school principal.
