Egyptian authorities have released a medical report detailing the cause of death for a disabled girl who was strangled in Shibin El-Qanater. The report, attached to the case file by the victim's lawyer, Abdelilah Diab, revealed that the girl suffered from asphyxiation due to strangulation. This resulted in her death. The report also noted that the girl had sustained injuries to her face and neck.
The Shibin El-Qanater prosecution had ordered an investigation into the cause of death. They also examined the injuries sustained by the victim at the hands of the accused. The suspect, a 45-year-old unemployed man, was arrested and charged with murder. The prosecution renewed his detention for 15 days pending further investigation. This decision was made after reviewing the medical report and other evidence.
According to the investigation, the suspect had been stalking the victim, named Hanen, as she walked at night in the village of Al-Ahraz. He then forcibly took her to a deserted area. When the victim began screaming, the suspect tried to silence her by covering her mouth. This ultimately led to her death.
The victim's body was discovered in an agricultural area, fully clothed. However, investigators found signs of injuries on her face and neck. This corroborated the theory that the suspect had committed the crime by strangling her. The initial investigation revealed that the suspect had been motivated by a desire to prevent the victim from exposing him.
The suspect, who resides in the village of Al-Betaya, was apprehended by security forces after his identity was established. He was subsequently referred to the prosecution. The victim's family buried her in their family's cemetery in the village of Tel Beni Temeem. The case has raised concerns about the safety and protection of people with disabilities.
