According to court files, the woman murdered the her 57-year-old boyfriend, a Bahraini, following a brawl in his apartment. The man, who met the woman over phone promised to get her a new job.
“We would drink beer in every time we meet in his apartment. We were also going to coffee shops, and whenever we return to his apartment in Riffa we had sex,” the defendant said.
On the day of the incident, the man was drunk and asked the woman to sleep with him. However the woman refused, leading to a fight between the two. The victim reportedly denied her from leaving the apartment.
