Strangulation wounds and whippings

The culprit entered the authorities’ radar after three naked bodies were found in different desert locations on the outskirts of Cairo, all with similar signs of torture, such as strangulation wounds and whiplashes, leading forensic experts to suggest only one. Person is responsible.

An investigation based on footage from security cameras that led to the location of the bodies led to Karim’s identification and arrest.

He then packed the bodies into travel bags for transport and then dumped them on desert roads.

Test Queen

The Egypt Independent newspaper points out that the man had deleted all records of photos and video clips, but a special team was able to retrieve the data and prove he had recorded his crimes.
