In a horrifying crime, an elderly Egyptian man killed his neighbor's children due to a shocking motive: their playing in the street in front of his house, which disturbed him. According to records from the Eastern Security Directorate, the Belbes Police Station received a report from a worker named Sayyed Hassan about the disappearance of his two children, Raheem (6 years) and Islam (5 years), after they went outside to play.
After a week, residents found the bodies of the two children, embracing each other and in a state of decomposition in the waters of the Kafr Abu Najm canal in the Abu Hammad district. After retrieving the bodies from the water, they were identified based on their descriptions.
Investigations revealed that the perpetrators of this horrific crime were Muhammad (65 years old), a retired employee, and his son Khaled (33 years old). The first suspect lured the children and attacked them by strangling them until they died. He placed their bodies in a sack and disposed of them in the waters of the Ismailia canal, where the current carried them to the location where they were eventually found.
The suspects were apprehended, and upon confrontation, the first suspect admitted that he had grown tired of the children frequently playing near his home, hurling insults at him and throwing stones. As a result, he assaulted them, beating and strangling them with his hands, which led to their deaths. He enlisted the help of his son, and they placed the bodies inside a plastic bag and transported them using a motorcycle (driven by the second suspect) before discarding the bag in a drainage canal. The son confirmed his father's statements when confronted.
The bodies were transferred to the morgue of Al-Qirin Central Hospital, and a report was filed regarding the incident. The public prosecutor authorized the burial after the completion of the autopsy and tasked the criminal investigation department with further inquiries into the case.
