KUWAIT: Six nurses at the psychiatric hospital are being interrogated by Shuwaikh detectives over a case involving a patient who allegedly committed suicide inside her room; a case that the public prosecution has later classified as a 'homicide'. The Indian woman was sent to the hospital by her company, and the death was reported earlier as a suicide. The coroner then sent a report to the public prosecution, which decided to reclassify the case as a homicide after the report showed evidence of foul play being involved. The nurses are being questioned to find out who visited the woman, how the crime was discovered and other related information.
