Heart attack took Enezi
2005-02-13
The interior minister said a jailed terror suspect died of a heart attack and not due to torture, as some lawmakers have suggested, according to remarks published Thursday. Amer Al-Enezi, 29, was captured in one of four shootouts between security forces and suspected terrorists last month. The Interior Ministry has said Al-Enezi died Tuesday of heart failure at a military hospital. The minister, Sheikh Nawaf Al-Ahmed Al-Sabah, told Al-Rai Al-Aam daily that Al-Enezi's death "was not the result of torture as some have alleged." He told the newspaper the coroner's report "will prove" his account.

Walid Al-Tabtabaei, a fundamentalist legislator, filed a question in parliament Wednesday asking whether al-Enezi's interrogators had respected a law that forbids torture. Without addressing the legislator by name, Sheikh Nawaf said accusations that Al-Enezi died of torture were not based on evidence. Police detained Al-Enezi, a former mosque preacher, in a Jan 31 raid on a house in Mubarak Al-Kabir, south of Kuwait City. The Interior Ministry said Al-Enezi, the suspected ringleader, and other detainees were wounded in the raid, but the extent of their injuries was not disclosed.
