Killer To Undergo Mental Test
Kuwaiti citizen has been referred to psychiatry for an assessment of his mental soundness by the Court of Appeals. After the citizen was convicted of killing his mother-in-law and attempting to kill her daughter (his wife) with a firearm (Kalashnikov) in Wafra after his wife left him and refused to stay with him due to family problems, the Criminal Court sentenced him to death. The case boils down to a report received by the Ministry of Interior’s Control Room from the citizen’s wife stating that her mother was shot dead while they were driving in their vehicle on Wafra Road. She was covered in blood inside the vehicle and the front and rear windows had been shattered by gunfire when security personnel arrived.
After an informant confirmed that her husband committed the crime, the suspect was arrested. He was referred to the Public Prosecution on charges of premeditated murder, and possession of a firearm and ammunition without a license. Security officers found the accused's vehicle in Wafra, and the weapon used in the crime was buried there. The suspect claimed that the Kalashnikov was a remnant of the Iraqi invasion, and he had kept it with him from the time he found it. He explained that he committed the crime due to family disputes that resulted in his wife leaving the marital home and not wanting to return to it. In Sabah Al-Ahmad City, he spotted her and her mother and followed their vehicle until he opened heavy fire on her on Wafra Road, but she miraculously survived while her mother died.
