Saturday after she allegedly refused to get engaged to him, Al Arabiya reported. The incident has rocked Egypt.

Ahmad Fathi Ameirah, 29, killed Amani Abdul-Karim al-Gazzar in Tukh Tanbisha village after she and her family rejected his offer to get married. Al-Gazar is said to have been a student at the Faculty of Physical Education.

The suspect was reportedly furious at the rejection and shot al-Gazzar “in the back in front of her family home and fled afterwards,” villagers told Al Arabiya.

They said he rejected Ameirah for her bad behaviour, adding that she was an excellent student.

The first session of the trial in the Bahjat murder case began on Sunday in the Zagazig Criminal Court, Al Arabiya said.
