An Indian man who reported to Kuwait police about a Sri Lankan woman committing self-immolation is currently under suspicion himself, even though he claimed he was actually the one trying to save the woman and suffered burn injuries in the process.
Security sources said the man informed the police about the suicide but when the police arrived, they found the woman burnt to death on her bed and covered with burnt blankets.
The Indian man, when quizzed by the police, said he tried to rescue her by throwing blankets on her and suffered burn injuries on his arms.
He was rushed to the Babtain Hospital and admitted to its intensive care unit but the police also kept him under watch, and posted a guard over him since he is a potential suspect.
Meanwhile, medical examiners were analyzing the woman’s body, Kuwait Times reported.
