Two Egyptian girls aged seven and five, were killed by their stepmother’s boyfriend after they caught the pair in the bedroom, reported Al Wafd newspaper.

The 32-year old boyfriend and the stepmom were involved in an illicit relationship.

The boyfriend, Mahmoud H, has been accused of manslaughter for killing the two siblings in their father’s apartment in Oseem of Giza before Eid Al Adha. The 23-year-old stepmother, Faiza AA, has also been put placed in police custody for 15 days. Meanwhile, investigation is on in the twin murder case.

Police probe revealed that the gruesome crime was committed while the father was sleeping in his room in the same apartment.

The man had been living with the family in the same apartment as a tenant ever since he arrived from Upper Egypt.

The lover told the police that he used to “watch Faiza always” and he fell in love with her. However, it was one-sided love, he maintained. The stepmom had, in fact, spurned his offer of a relationship.

Despite being rejected, he continued to try and woo her by buying sweets and toys for her stepchildren.

One night, he caught the housewife but she got away and complained to her husband who beat him up and threw him out of their home.

Mahmoud could not get Faiza out of his mind and he started stalking her whenever she would get out of home.

The accused disclosed he was surprised when she responded to his overture and gave him her phone number.

He told the police that ever since then he would talk to her every day and also when her husband was at home or fast asleep.

He added the day before the murder he met Faiza and asked her to let him meet her at the apartment as he wanted to talk to her about something important. Faiza agreed to meet him when her husband was away at work.

On the day of the incident, Mahmoud went to the house but Faiza refused to let him in as her husband had not left for work and was resting.

He added that he did not believe her and forced his way inside the house. Faiza hid him in the grandmother’s room on the ground floor.

He added that shortly after they went inside the room, the duo found the 5-year old girl entered the room.

He reacted by suffocating the child. However, the child continued to scream and he got a knife from the kitchen and stabbed the girl with the help of the stepmother.

During the scuffle with the girl, the 7-year old child also woke up after hearing her scream and Mahmoud stabbed her as well to stop her from making any noise.

He carried the bodies of the girls and left them near the main door.
