GCC man murders mom after heated argument

A Saudi man murdered his mother by stabbing her at least 10 times in various parts of her body following a heated argument, a newspaper reported on Sunday.

The father returned home to find his wife lying dead in a pool of blood at her house in the western Saudi town of Laith, Sabq said.

It said the husband phoned the police who tracked down the fleeing son and arrested him. “Police said they are still investigating the case,” it added.
