2006-05-08
MANILA - A Saudi Arabian man has been arrested in the Philippines for allegedly beheading his Filipino mother-in-law, police said on Monday. Senior Police Officer Filipina Manaig said Zyad Bander Abdullah, 35, allegedly killed and beheaded his mother-in-law late Saturday in their residence in Calamba City, 50 kilometres south of Manila.
That'll put a damper on Mother's Day
Manaig said the suspect, armed with a kitchen knife, suddenly barged into the bathroom, where his 66-year-old mother-in-law was taking a bath, and attacked her for no apparent reason.
Hey, he's a Saudi. It doesn't take much to git yur head wacked off
According to the suspectÂ’s wife, her husband was having an argument with someone over the phone prior to the incident. The wife added the suspect was hot-tempered.
Ya think?
The suspect was being detained e police station in the city, while criminal charges were being readied against him.

#4  I realize that Rambler. I was just contrasting how little of an offense it would be back in Saudi. And I predict he will get off with a fine. The Phillipines are too dependent on Saudi remittances and the Phillipinos in Saudi will be sunject to even more abuse.

P.S. Of course Abdullah was pissed off. He was surrounded by dirty infidels. It's enough to make a pious muslim saw off heads.

#3  Ed, unfortunately for Mr. Abdullah, the beheading took place in the Philippines.

In Saudi Arabia, of course, he never would have been married to a Filipina, since they are considered less than human there.

#2  No harm. No foul. Just another infidel from a servant nation. Hardly worth a fine in Saudi.
