An Egyptian man, who was sentenced to death for killing his three children with help of his two wives, died in prison before the death penalty could be carried out, Gulf News reported on 3 March 2022, citing local media.
Media did not mention how he died.
The man and his two wives, including the mother of the two boys and girl, were found guilty of killing the three children by drowning them in a bucket filled with water.
On 28 February, the Cairo Criminal Court handed Ahmed, Hala and Iman, the death penalty after convicting the trio of premeditated first degree murder. According to court papers, the father committed the crime after the second wife, who did not have children, made him sceptical about his children’s lineage. The mother of the children was also involved in the crime and found guilty.
The court referred the papers of the three convicts to Egypt’s Mufti for approval before the execution. The shocking crime, described by Egyptian media as 'Al Marj Massacre', took place in 2017.
