Bedoun, a Saudi and a Pakistani to be hanged to death today:
KUWAIT CITY, March 31:
Three people — a bedoun, a Saudi and a Pakistani — will be hanged to death Monday, April 1, 2013. This is the first time hanging takes place in Kuwait after a lapse of five years, reports Al-Seyassah daily.
The men were sentenced to death by lower courts, the verdict was upheld by the Court of Cassation and ratified by His Highness the Amir Sheikh Sabah Al-Ahmad Al-Sabah.
According to reliable information, the gallows have already been prepared in the Central Prison.
Earlier all death sentences were carried out at the Nayef Palace now they are carried out at the Central Prison.
The bedoun was sentenced to death for killing his wife and five sons, the Saudi sentenced to death for killing his friend and the Pakistani for killing an unidentified woman and her husband.
I guess there won't be people from the general public watching since it is at the central prison.
UPDATE: There was an article about the kuwait executions today which contains GRAPHIC IMAGES, if you are sensitive then I would suggest avoiding the article.
