Murder Case in Al Khobar

There’s a latest development concerning the murder case in Al Khobar involving a Filipina woman. The victim was identified but for the sake of respecting the dead and her family’s grief, I would rather not mention her name. The Al Khobar police, according to reports were able to capture the suspected killer. Contrary to the ‘Filipino Grapevine’, the killer is a Filipina, a ‘Kumare’ of the victim for 20 years. The suspect confessed to the Police with a sworn in affidavit authenticated by the Al Khobar court for the crime that she committed. The victim and the killer were in an argument when suddenly the suspect went to the kitchen, took a kitchen knife, and stab the victim several times.

The earlier reports that circulated in the emails were exaggerated. Filipinos were fast to accuse the natives ‘Katutubo’ of committing the crime. I salute the authorities for solving the crime within days. I hope that the soul of the victim will finally rest in peace. It would also be a closure to the victim’s family. In the Kingdom of Sands, crime doesn’t pay. I am pretty certain that the suspect will receive a death penalty.
