Khaberni - Egypt, and especially the Faisal area in Giza, was shaken by a horrific crime that surpassed the bounds of imagination, transforming the life of a simple family into a human tragedy that shook the conscience of the Egyptian street.
In a chilling incident, the bodies of three children and their mother were found under mysterious circumstances, revealing later shocking details involving betrayal and murder in a brutal fashion, in one of the most heinous crimes witnessed by Giza Governorate in recent years.
The Mystery of the Incident with the Three Children and their Mother in Faisal
The unraveling of the crime began when security forces received a report from the residents of Mahmoud Harbi Street in Libini in Faisal, which stated the discovery of two children at the entrance of a building, one of whom, Seif El Din (13 years old), was a lifeless body, and the other, his sister Jana (11 years old), was battling for her life before she finally succumbed to poison.
Hours later, the body of their third sibling, Mustafa, was discovered drowned in the Mansouriya Canal, revealing the contours of a horrifying family catastrophe that puzzled over the killer’s identity and motives.
Preliminary investigations revealed that the three children were the offspring of Hamadah Eid Mohamed El Sayed (36 years old), a security man at the stores of a company, and his wife Zizi Mustafa Taha Abdel Jawad (32 years old), who worked as a maid.
The father reported that his wife left home at the end of September with their children after family disputes and mutual suspicions, and never returned, which led him to file an official report at Al-Haram Police Station after confirming that she did not go to her family's house as she claimed.
Investigations Reveal Illicit Relationship and Heinous Crime
Investigations concluded that the main suspect was Ahmed Mohamed Abdel Ghani Abdel Fattah (38 years old), owner of a veterinary pharmacy in the area of Kafr Tahrmus, along with his assistant Ramadan Saleh Abdel Hamid (54 years old).
The suspect confessed during the investigation that he met the mother while she was working, and a illicit relationship developed between them after which she moved to live with him in a rented apartment on Salim Street, bringing her three children along.
He added in his confessions that he decided to eliminate the mother after discovering her betrayal, so he brought a deadly chemical used in cleaning veterinary tools, and inserted it into juice he served her, leading to her death inside the apartment.
He then transported her body to Al-Qasr Al-Aini Hospital claiming she was his wife, and entered fake details before fleeing the scene.
A few days later, the suspect decided to eliminate the three children in the same manner, taking them to the area of Mansouriya Canal, and giving them poisoned juices.
The older children consumed the juice and later died, while the youngest child, Mustafa, refused to drink, so the suspect threw him into the water channel where he met his death by drowning.
He then enlisted his assistant and a tuk-tuk driver to transport the two bodies and leave them in front of the building they were found in.
The Family's Shock and Painful Details
The crime triggered a wave of anger and profound sadness in the Egyptian street, especially after statements from the grandfather, Nasser Abdel Gaid, who denied all the disgraceful accusations against his daughter, affirming that she was "a virtuous woman who lived a difficult life and struggled to raise her children and teach them the Quran."
And he added, crying:
"What did the children do to deserve this? Why must they die in such a horrific manner?"
The grandfather confirmed that the father is in a terrible psychological state after losing his family, while the security forces continue their investigations to close the case completely.
Eyewitness Testimony
Ahmed Houeidq, a resident of the building in front of which the children were found, said that the scene was shockingly unforgettable, noting that the moment of finding them was filled with chaos, fear, and tears.
And he added in press statements:
"We woke up to screaming and commotion downstairs, and when I went down, I found people gathered around two children lying in front of the entrance. One of them was motionless, and the girl was struggling to breathe, and the sight was heartbreakingly tragic."
He continued saying:
"People tried to help the children quickly, and police and ambulance were informed, arriving in a very short time. The street was completely closed off, fingerprint collection and questioning of residents started. Shortly after, the children's father arrived, totally collapsed, unable to believe what had happened."
Houeidq concluded saying:
"Since that moment, the entire building has been living in sorrow and fear, as no one can sleep or believe that such a crime happened right in front of our eyes. The children were angels, may God have mercy on them, and may God take vengeance on whoever committed this atrocious crime."
A Moral and Human Tragedy
The incident in Faisal remains one of the most horrific crimes that highlighted moral degeneration and family violence, leaving painful questions about the absence of mercy and the disintegration of values within certain segments of society.
