An unknown man donned a cooling technician’s uniform and knocked at the door of an apartment in Kuwait in a bid to rape the pretty widow inside. But his Kuwaiti accent exposed his dirty plot.

“He told me that he came to repair the air conditioning system but I quickly suspected him because of his Kuwaiti accent,” said the unnamed widow.

“I pushed him but he jumped on me.….I started to scream until the watchman and neighours came but he had already fled.”

The woman, quoted by Alanba newspaper on Tuesday, told police she would never forget the man’s face and that she could pick him from among 100 men.
