KUWAIT CITY, Jan 8:  A father, who complained that his 10-year-old daughter’s Arabic tutor had misbehaved with her, reportedly tried to bargain with the tutor and offered to withdraw the complaint if the latter paid him KD 1,000, reports Al-Rai daily. 
The man had earlier lodged a complaint at Rumaithiya Police Station, accusing the tutor of behaving inappropriately with the girl. The tutor was shocked and said the girl’s father allowed him to discipline her and that he just held the girl’s arms.
The tutor was however arrested and referred to prosecution. Sources said the father contacted the tutor and offered to withdraw the complaint if he shelled out KD 1,000.

Girl molested: Police are looking for an unidentified person who attempted to molest a 19-year-old girl in a camping area, reports Al-Anba daily.
The incident took place when the girl was riding a buggy and it malfunctioned in an open area near her family’s tent. In a complaint filed at Abdullah Port police station, she said a youth, who approached her under the pretext of helping, tried to molest her and that he fled when she started shouting for help.
