Kuwait City: A court has upheld the death sentence for a Filipino maid convicted of killing her employer’s son.
25-year-old May Membrini was convicted of slitting the throat of a seven-year-old boy with a kitchen knife in January 2007. She was also found guilty of attempted murder of the boy’s 11-year-old brother and 18-year-old sister.
Membrini, herself a mother of two, had complained of mistreatment by her employer.
The ruling, by the court of cassation, is final and cannot be overturned.
