Politics 2012: Ron Paul strategy keeps things interesting
CAIRO, Dec. 14 (UPI) -- An Egyptian man has been charged with fatally stabbing his wife on their wedding night when he decided she was not a virgin.
Ibrahim Ali and Hoda Salem were married in the village of Al-Quba in the Nile Delta. On their wedding night, residents heard Salem screaming and found her on the floor, al-Arabiya reported.
Salem said that her husband had stabbed her. She died at the hospital.
Ali, after his arrest, said that he was unable to break his wife's hymen on the wedding night, leading him to conclude that she was sexually experienced, the report said.
In a similar recent case, an autopsy found that the bride was a virgin. Gynecologist Naglaa Ahmed said that in many cases new husbands are unable to break the hymen on the wedding night because of nervousness. In other cases, women have unusually tough hymens, requiring surgical intervention.
