Al-Marsad newspaper: The lawyer for the killer of Mansoura University student Naira Ashraf revealed that his client asked him to deliver a message to his family, in addition to another request in an effort to reduce his sentence after the Egyptian Criminal Court upheld his death sentence.
Lawyer Ahmed Hamad explained that the killer, Mohamed Adel, gave him the password of his e-mail to get photos, which he collected with the victim and presented as evidence.
He also indicated that the accused sent a letter to his mother reassuring her of his condition, asking her to pardon what he had done, stressing that “he was going through a difficult psychological situation that forced him to do what he did.”
It is noteworthy that the Egyptian Criminal Court in Mansoura, during its session, last Wednesday, upheld the death sentence for the killer, after the Mufti of Egypt approved the death sentence.
