Ethiopian maid stabs employer 70 times, sets body on fire

United Arab Emirates (UAE)

Ras Al Khaimah Police has arrested an Ethiopian housemaid suspected of murdering a Moroccan woman and her daughter in their home on Saturday.

The 21-year-old housemaid allegedly stabbed the 35-year-old woman about 70 times. She then locked the woman’s body along with her two-and-a-half-year-old daughter in the bedroom of their apartment and set it on fire, police said.

Firefighters were alerted and managed to control the fire within a few minutes.

Lt-Col Salem Sultan Al Darmaki, Chief of the RAK CID, said the mother’s body had minor burns but was stabbed several times. The child had died of suffocation.

The victim’s husband, a UAE national, informed police that they had hired the housemaid just 10 days ago.

The housemaid, some money, gold and a mobile phone belonging to the victim were found missing after the incident.

The RAK CID arrested the suspect from her friend’s house in Sharjah within 24 hours.

During interrogation, the housemaid confessed to the crime and admitted that she did it because her employer was very abusive. She admitted to stabbing the victim with a knife after a scuffle when her employer threatened to sack her.

Arabs deserve that
I think, most of the Arabs deserve that, because they are very very abusive against poor African people. These Arabs are so ignorant and they no respect for humanity. They treat you like slave. As a result the Ethiopian lady may be motivated for retaliation. Above all we have to blame ourselves for not removing brutal dictator that forcing people to be slaved overseas. Yesterday by Amharas today by minority Tigrians. Shame on us! Oromo have to united and liberate everyone in aid darling country.

Well, it is largely a displaced Aggression as an outcome of misery, 2o long years of MINORITY WAYANE impoverishing violence and complete economic, political, social,etc. insecurities leading to constant displacements from home, community and country and finding oneself in an alien and stressful degrading environment. These YOUNG KIDS are supposed to be in their familiar homes, communities and country, going to school, playing with school and neighborhood relatives children and adults as well as being surrounded by networks of secure elders, peers, relatives and acquaintances and enjoying this short life and livings on earth with the minimum of worries. But NO! Wayane brutal dictatorial RULE HAS converted that human and materially resource RICH country in to an immaginable HELL on earth, where even tender girls and tender young mothers may easily be shot straight away on the streets as well as thrown into medieval death chambers just like Birtukan Midheksa or all those 200 young Ethiopians who were massacred cold blooded on the streets of Addis Ababa in 2005, not to talk of all those individuals dragged out of their beds and houses and thrown in to dangeons and death chambers at any time by any Wayane Nazi cadres.
So, folks direct your angers, frustrations, dismays and misfortunes of yours, your relatives and your country peoples as a whole, wherever they are, at the real cause, which is barbaric Wayane dictatorial rule.
