KUWAIT: The court of appeals yesterday adjourned till Nov 20 hearing a case filed against a non-Kuwaiti for murdering his brother in Andalus.

Enezi also explained that the defendant and the victim were half-brothers and that his client had always been nice to his siblings and helped them financially, including the defendant. Notably, the criminal court had sentenced the defendant to death for first-degree murder, and ordered him to pay the victim's mother KD 5,001 in compensation.
