Eyewitnesses said that the dentist had three children, and a dispute arose between the spouses, in which the husband stabbed his wife with a knife several times deeply.

They added that the couple lived in the husband’s family home, and his parents heard a quarrel, and when they went up to their apartment, they found the wife soaked in blood and the husband missing. Right away, they called the ambulance to take her to the hospital.

Local police filed a case report and referred it to the prosecution, who ordered an autopsy and a statement of the causes of death. Detectives were also directed to quickly arrest the suspect.

Dakahlia Investigations searched until located the suspect in one of Alexandria’s summer apartments.

The victim’s brother said: “We want retribution and we want the right of my respected sister.”

Her uncle said, “His sister’s daughter is known for her good manners and commitment, and from a respectable family, and we never expected or imagined that her end would be so horrific.”

The dentist’s aunt added: “The victim called her mother in the middle of the night of the accident, complaining about her husband and asking her to come because she was very afraid of him, but her mother reassured her and asked her to live quietly in order to preserve her family.”
