Death Sentence for Kuwaiti Who Killed and Buried House Driver

KUWAIT CITY, April 29: The Criminal Court has sentenced a Kuwaiti citizen to death for the premeditated murder of his house driver, whose body was discovered buried near the Umm Al-Ghara scrap yard. The case came to light after authorities received a tip about a man discarding blood-stained clothing in a trash bin in Saad Al-Abdullah.

Following the report, the Criminal Security Sector, represented by the Jahra Governorate Investigations Department, launched an immediate investigation. Surveillance footage helped identify a suspect who was seen disposing of the clothes.

During interrogation, the suspect confessed to killing his driver and dumping the body in a desert area behind the scrap yard. He led investigators to the site where the body was found. The victim was confirmed to have been working as the suspect’s house driver. A criminal case was filed, and the accused was referred to the competent authorities for prosecution.
