LONDON: A Kuwaiti fashionista involved in a car accident in Kuwait that killed two people was not under the influence of drugs, a laboratory report has reportedly revealed.

A source told Al-Arabiya that contrary to stories on social media, laboratory analysis confirmed that no drugs were found in Fatima Almomen’s car.

The famous fashion influencer crossed a red light, which led to her car colliding with another and the deaths of two passengers: Walid Jassim Muhammad Al-Mutairi and Yousef Badr Al-Kaami.

The source said reports of a third fatality were untrue.

The accident caused a social media uproar in Kuwait after videos of it circulated and rumors spread that Almomen was driving under the influence. 

Almomen was charged with 10 offenses: manslaughter, causing accidental injury, speeding, driving under the influence of alcohol or narcotics, crossing a red light, driving with invalid insurance, reckless driving, not carrying a license, damaging public property, and damaging the property of others. 

The Kuwaiti Ministry of Interior said it had been decided to “imprison Almomen for 10 days as a precautionary measure pending investigation, and to refer her to the Central Prison in preparation for her transfer to the competent court, and to release the vehicle driver’s escort.” 

The Public Prosecution refused a request for bail.
