Last Saturday, Assiut Governorate witnessed an incident in which a driver was found murdered inside a private car, along with a woman with several stab wounds, near Al-Maasara Bridge.
The victim’s family: We want our son’s rights
The family of the murdered young man revealed some of the tragic details of the killing of their son, as they explained that his name is Mahmoud Ahmed Galal, 38 years old, who has two children, the eldest of whom is in the first grade of middle school, and works as an angel driver for a contracting company in Assiut.
The bereaved mother said, filled with sadness, that she had spent her life raising her children, and everyone who knew them bore witness to their good morals and conduct, including the victim, to whom everyone bore witness to his good manners and sweet conversation.
She added that her son paid the price for his chivalry and honesty, as the perpetrator stole some things from the company owner, and when he confronted her son, the latter confessed to the perpetrator, which resulted in the company owner firing him, but soon Mahmoud Ahmed, the victim, intervened and asked the company owner to forgive him and return him to work, so he agreed and returned him to his job.
However, the killer did not forget the victim’s testimony against him, so he decided to get rid of him at the appropriate time, and began writing some threatening posts on his page on the social networking site Facebook, until he actually committed his crime last Saturday during their return from Cairo.
The mother explained that Muhammad. A., the killer, suddenly betrayed her son, and while he was killing him, the killer’s wife was accompanying them in the car, so he stabbed her several times, and she is now receiving treatment in the hospital. The company owner’s wife was also with them, and he did not harm her.
She pointed out that the wife of the company owner, who was the main witness in the incident, when she was summoned before the investigating authorities, went to the investigation accompanied by seven lawyers, which raised deep doubts in their minds about the existence of a hidden mystery behind the crime.
The mother called on the security services to quickly arrest the perpetrator and reveal the full truth behind this crime, in which they demand fair retribution for their deceased.
