KUWAIT: Three juveniles wreaked havoc in a Salmiya cafe after they ganged up against a waiter and beat him severely, until they were caught by police who held them prior to sending them to the juvenile protection department.

Liquor possession

Ahmadi police caught an Indian man in Mangaf with 39 bottles of locally-made liquor, and he was sent to the Drugs Control General Department (DCGD). The arrest was made when a patrol found the man roaming the area at night, so police stopped him and found the liquor in the trunk of his car. In another case, a drug user who was asleep in his car was awakened by police, then sent to the DCGD. Police received a call earlier about an unconscious person in his car in Riqqa, so they went and awakened him, and found drugs.

'Missing' girl found

A citizen told Farwaniya police that his daughter has gone missing. Detectives took over the case, and were able to trace her with the use of the GPS to a popular café in industrial Ardhiya, where she was arrested and taken to concerned authorities.

Fight exposes thieves

A fight between two citizens in Salwa exposed a theft they had committed. The men exchanged blows over the division of the loot. Both were arrested. A call was made about a fight in a Salwa parking lot, and when police arrived, the two fled, but were chased on foot and arrested. The two said they were fighting over items they stole from a car.

Attempted kidnap

A beautician lodged an attempted kidnapping complaint against a man after she refused his offer to give her a ride in Abu Halifa. A security source said a Filipina told Abu Halaifa police that when she left the salon, a person stopped and offered her a ride, but she refused, so he attempted to take her by force, but she was able to free herself. Ahmadi detectives are investigating.

Forgery

A citizen obtained a replacement civil ID for his wife using her nationality certificate without her knowledge. A citizen in her forties told Surra police that she was a victim of forgery, claiming that her husband got a duplicate ID as well as her nationality certificate, which he used to get the ID. The case was sent to prosecution.

Domestic violence

A citizen told Waha police that her husband beat her and caused the injuries stated in the medical report she submitted. The citizen said her husband, who works for the social affairs ministry, beat her with a sharp metal object at Jahra cemetery and smashed her car's windshield, before leaving. Police attempted to call her husband but he did not answer. Police are investigating. - Al-Rai
