Schoolboy stabs student in Shubra: A schoolboy in Shubra has been remanded in custody on suspicion of murdering a teenage student in the Faculty of Commerce, who'd beaten up his elder brother while they were playing football in the street. Islam Ahmed (19) died of his injuries in a private hospital. He'd argued with Ezzat Moustafa (18) and then given him a beating. Ezzat told his younger brother, Ibrahim (15), who got his revenge by fatally knifing the violent student. Divorcee in DNAdoubts: After divorcing her husband, a young woman caught an accountant in her web. He swiftly fell for her charms, married her and rented a nice flat for them to live in. But she soon started cheating on him - with none other than her first husband. When she gave birth to a daughter, sh told the accountant it was his, but he wasn't so sure. He took the little girl to a lab for DNAtesting, which confirmed that he wasn't the father. The accountant then filed a report against his wife at el-Omrania Police Station. Her second husband married her in 2001 and it was the following year that she gave birth to the little girl, whom her ex-husband had fathered. It was in 2000 that she'd married her first husband. They soon divorced, then remarried, then divorced again. It was five months after the second divorce that that she and her second husband got married in 2001. Sixteen months later, in 2002, she gave birth to her daughter. Before the case went to el-Omrania Court of Misdemeanour, she was presented with the evidence from the lab, but said that the lab was wrong, insisting that the accountant was the girl's father. When she didn't turn up in court, she was sentenced to two years in prison in absentia, having been found guilty of adultery, and ordered to pay the accountant LE10,000 in compensation. A few years ago, before the advent of DNAtechnology, the outcome of this case might have been very different, if indeed the case had ever reached the courts. Torture for 'tell all' toddler: A woman from el-Khanka, el- Qaliubia Governorate killed her four-year-old daughter, because she told her husband, the girl's father, that mummy had been sleeping with young men. The little girl innocently told her father what mummy was up to, when she went to visit him in prison. The victim's 25-year-old mother, Sayyeda Abu Zeid, has been sentenced to life imprisonment by Benha Criminal Court. It was last year that Basma Saeed was rushed to el-Khanka General Hospital by her mother. The girl, whose body was covered in burn marks and bruising, was already dead. Suspicious doctors reported this to police, who discovered that the girl's mother had been playing around in her husband's absence: he was serving six years in Abu Zaaabal Prison for drug offences at the time. Basma's mother invited young men back to their home and had sexual intercourse with them in front of her daughter. One day, Basma's paternal auntie took her to Abu Zaabal and the toddler told all. Sayyeda's reaction was cruel. She tied up Basma and burnt her to death with the iron. When she took her body to hospital, she claimed that her daughter had died after accidentally falling out of the window of their second-floor flat.
