The thirty-three-year-old woman took him to court and a judge ordered him to pay 750 Euros compensation to the victim. The man was outraged and appealed the ruling. He went to court for the second time. In court the man produced a knife and stabbed her 18 times in front of her husband and three-year-old son. The husband tried to defend her but he got stabbed by the attacker. He was also shot three times by a policeman who thought the husband was the attacker.
The criminal case shocked everyone in the Middle East and attracted much attention. People in the victim’s hometown of Alexandria were angry because the case had very little media coverage in Germany and was never mentioned on TV. They argued that if the attacker had been Muslim, the case would have made headlines around the globe. Senior Egyptian and German officials attended the funeral in Alexandria with thousands of mourners. Police in Germany didn't release the identity of the attacker and only said that he was a Russian immigrant.
The husband was unable to attend the funeral as he was still receiving medical treatment for his wounds in hospital in Germany. He told an Egyptian newspaper that they were due back in Egypt three days after the murder as he had already submitted his PhD thesis and finished his scholarship in Germany.
