This copy of the murderer’s civil ID was published in yesterday’s AlQabas.

You know whats the scary part? This guy was our next door neighbour for a long time!! He used to rent a place from the guy who wanted to start الأمر بالمعروف و النهي عن المنكر in Kuwait (where they have sticks and run around telling women to cover up like in Saudi). I used to see him when I leave the house, at first I used to say hello, but he was such an ass that he never replied (bcz I was very obviously a liberal).

Anyway, that “saying hi” trend went from trying to be friendly to raising the music really loud and staring him till he turns his head the other way.

When I saw the pic, I recognized him at once, but thought I was crazy, bcz someone wouldve mentioned something from home. So….my mom calls a few mins later telling me the same thing!! Apparently, all the drivers of the neighborhood gathered together in some sort of emergency meeting at the Qurtoba drivers councel and made a decision that it was in fact him, and if I had my doubts before, then I am sure now! (He moved out a couple of weeks ago I think)

So in conclusion, I lived near a murderer, and I actually was giving a murderer dirty looks for many years! scary, no?
