Eastern Province executes wife murderer and arsonist
The Zagazig Criminal Court sentenced a 60-year-old housewife to death by hanging after convicting her of murdering her 65-year-old husband with a concrete stone and then setting his body on fire to conceal the crime. The incident occurred in Bahb Al-Baqar Village in Sharqia Governorate as a result of ongoing marital disputes. The defendant waited until her husband fell asleep, then attacked him with blows to the head, and set his clothes on fire to destroy evidence. Investigations revealed that the defendant deliberately staged an attack on her with masked assailants to divert suspicion from herself, before acting in a revengeful manner to end his life. The court ordered her to be detained in a mental health hospital for evaluation, and her mental soundness was confirmed. The death sentence was issued based on clear evidence indicating her premeditated intent to commit the murder.
