Guardian - The headscarf martyr: murder in German court sparks Egyptian fury
It was while Marwa el-Sherbini was in the dock recalling how the accused had insulted her for wearing the hijab after she asked him to let her son sit on a swing last summer, that the very same man strode across the Dresden courtroom and plunged a knife into her 18 times. Her three-year-old son Mustafa was forced to watch as his mother slumped to the courtroom floor. Even her husband Elvi Ali Okaz could do nothing as the 28-year-old Russian stock controller who was being sued for insult and abuse took the life of his pregnant wife. As Okaz ran to save her, he too was brought down, shot by a police officer who mistook him for the attacker. He is now in intensive care in a Dresden hospital.

how does a man with a known history of violent abuse get to be allowed to carry a knife into court during his own trial ??
The policeman had a choice of shooting the guy with the knife or the brown guy; guess which choice he made ?
why is the German govt staying quiet over this ? I mean, c'mon guys. this is not hard. keep to the Fen Causeway
