Man kills sister for wearing tight clothes

Cairo: An Egyptian man stabbed his sister to death in front of another sister at their home because she wore tight clothes.

The man was visiting his married sister in the Egyptian capital Cairo when he saw his younger sister at her home with tight clothes.

Newspapers said the elder sister told police that her brother had an argument with her younger sister over her use of tight clothes and ordered her to take them off.

“She refused….he went to the kitchen and brought a knife, which he used to stab my sister to death. I could not do anything because I was scared that he may kill me and my children,” the woman told police.
