The woman allegedly took the young boy inside the bathroom and slammed his head repeatedly on the floor before hiding his body in an abandoned building nearby.

The boy’s father told Arab News earlier that he wanted the death penalty for his wife if she was found guilty.

The woman reportedly told the police during questioning that she thought Ahmad became unconscious after she beat him up badly. She claimed that she dressed him up, hired a taxi and took him to a nearby clinic, but he was pronounced dead on arrival.
