A nasty case of abuse: El-Ismailia Criminal Court has sentenced two men who worked on a tourist boat on the Suez Corniche in e -Ismailia to 15 years in prison, having found them guilty of abusing a boy. Sayyed and Ahmed assaulted their 12-year-old victim on a tourist boat on a lake popular with fishermen. It was in August last year that the unnamed schoolboy, enjoying a day out with his family, was lured by the two young men onto the boat, where they tied him up and exposed him to unpleasant assaults for three hours. When they released him, he told his parents what had happened and they went to the police, who arrested the two workers, whom their victim identified. The judge gave them the maximum penalty for the offences. Electrician butchered: A butcher and a worker killed their relative, an electrician. He died after a violent argument over the family inheritance in el-Nubaria Street in the Meena el-Bassel district of Alexandria, in the course of which they knifed him. The electrician, Qabari Mohamed, who also suffered a fractured skull, died in hospital of his injuries. He'd been attacked by Mohamed el-Sayyed (the butcher) and Ahmed Mansour (the worker). He was hopelessly outnumbered, as Mohamed and Ahmed were helped by four other relatives of theirs: el-Sayyed Ahmed and Ismail Mohamed (both butchers as well); Mansour Mohssen (another worker); and Mohamed Ismail (a trader). Cold feathers in the love nest: Detectives have solved the case of the teenage housewife who went missing from the village of el-Adlan near Damietta. She was walking with her husband down el-Sharbas Street in the village, when she managed to give him the slip, in order to honour an appointment with her lover. It was her 22-year-old husband, a furniture maker, who reported her disappearance. Detectives soon discovered that the 19-year-old housewife was involved with a microbus driver from New Alexandria. She managed to inform her boyfriend that she and her husband were going for a walk. He followed them at a distance and then she joined him when something in a shop window distracted her husband. The microbus driver took her to the coastal resort of Ras el-Barr, where he'd rented a cosy little love nest for them. But he got cold feathers when he realised the police were after them and he flew away from the nest, before being netted by detectives. Hostesses in Haram: El-Omrania Court of Misdemeanour in Giza has sentenced two young ladies who worked in a restaurant to 12 months in prison, to be followed by another year of police surveillance. The pair were found guilty of offering male customers in the eatery alternative, postprandial entertainment. The ladies, employed as hostesses in the restaurant, were caught by a Vice Squad team who were patrolling in el-Haram Street one night. They went into the eating place and the sight of these ladies, dressed in 'stimulating' outfits and chatting up the customers, immediately caught their attention. Aya (19) and Afaf (no age given) were arrested and bailed, before being referred for trial and sent down for a stretch.
