An Asian man working as a delivery man for a restaurant in Kuwait raped a local teen age girl at her home and told police he just lost his mind when he saw her in indecent clothes, newspapers in the oil-rich Gulf emirate reported on Tuesday.

After raping the unnamed girl at her house in Al Jahra neighborhood in the capital Kuwait City, the worker fled and hid at a friend’s house before he was caught.

“He confessed to his crime…he said that when the girl opened the door for him to deliver the meal, she was wearing indecent clothes,” a police spokesman said. “He said that when he saw her in such clothes, he just lost his mind and balance.”

Woman raped by painter

An Egyptian wall painter went into an apartment at the request of a married Kuwaiti woman to check which colour she wanted for her new wall paint. Instead of starting painting, the man raped her.

Police said they arrested the man as he tried to sneak out of the Gulf emirate, adding that he confessed to his crime.

Newspapers said police had mounted a manhunt for the rapist after the husband of the 20-year-old woman reported the crime.
