tomhai yad ho ki nahooooooooooooooo Marwa Sherbini murder: Egyptians mourn the “headscarf martyr” video crime Egypt Germany Islam Muslim veil Official court illustration of the stabbing. A shocking incident in which an Egyptian woman was stabbed to death in a German courtroom has provoked outrage in her home country. The young mother, pregnant with her second child, was killed by the very man she was bearing witness against, himself in court for making Islamophobic insults. Thirty-two-year-old Marwa Sherbini was four months pregnant when she was attacked in the Dresden court on July 1. She was stabbed 18 times, in full view of the attendees, including her three-year-old son. Her husband, Aloui Ali Oukaz, who tried to come to her aid, was also stabbed and then shot down by a policeman who thought him to be an attacker, leaving him hospitalised. The story began in August 2008, when Ms Sherbini brought charges against 28-year-old Axel W., unemployed and of Russian origin, for having had called her a terrorist because she was wearing a headscarf. The right-wing extremist was charged 780 euros, but appealed the ruling. It was at the appeal that the incident took place. Sherbini, a chemist, had been living in Germany since 2003. observers.france24/content/20090713-marwa-sherbini-murder-egyptians-cry-vengeance-hijab-germany-islamophobia
