Kuwaiti woman pays $96,000 to get rid of jinn
Claimant accuses 2 other women of duping her into paying money to evict jinn
Cairo: A Kuwaiti woman has accused two other women of swindling nearly 30,000 dinars from her by purportedly ridding her of jinn, local media reported.
The woman, whose name was not disclosed, claimed that another Kuwaiti woman and her stateless Bidoon assistant had duped her into believing that she was possessed by a jinn.
In her report to the police, the 37-year-old woman provided evidence of paying KD25,080 via bank transfers and an additional 4,000 dinars in cash to expel the alleged jinn.
The alleged victim had been tricked by the two charlatans into paying the money on different occasions during the sorcery sessions, according to a security source.
“She presented a bank statement proving the payments,” the source said.
An investigation into a fraud case has been opened and the two alleged defendants will be summoned for interrogation.
