Lady Doctor tortured the maid and now in jail for 4 years
As per Kuwait Times, The court of appeal yesterday annulled a previous verdict acquitting a 55-year-old female Kuwaiti doctor from charges of torturing her housemaid, and sentenced her to four years in prison with labor.
The doctor had been accused of torturing the maid, causing her permanent disability as the maid lost vision in her left eye. The doctor had also detained the maid for four years, preventing her from leaving her house in Adan and tortured her on a daily basis. Checking the doctor’s record,
she was found accused of similar charges in 2007 when the maid she had at that time managed to escape her house and reported the matter to authorities.
