The Minister of Foreign Affairs Sheikh Salem condemned on Monday, Jan. 30, the brutal killing of overseas Filipino worker (OFW) Jullebee Ranara.
Salem also expressed his condolences to Ranara’s family.
“Sheikh Salem asked Mr. Cabrera to convey his deepest condolences to the family and the Philippine government on the brutal and tragic death of Ms. Ranara,” the Philippine Embassy of Kuwait said in a statement.
Salem said that Ranara’s perpetrator is already in jail. He already assured that the suspect will be “punished for his heinous crime.”
