Father of Zeina’s killer demands execution for his son

Mohamed Kasper, the father of one of two young men who killed a five-year-old girl named Zeina, called Tuesday for the execution of his son.

Zeina was killed in Port Said last November by two teenagers who threw her from the 11th floor of her building after attempting to rape her. They were sentenced to 15 years in jail.

Kasper said in a phone call to the Dream satellite channel that he does not hate his son, but believes he deserves to be executed for such a heinous crime.

He said he testified as the first witness in the trial.
