The Four-Year Plot: How a "Cleverest Physician" Engineered a Medical School Murder Trap

Fatimah and Abbas met while studying medicine in Egypt, and their relationship escalated from admiration to a secret, illicit affair. Fatimah became obsessively attached to Abbas, and when he decided to end the relationship, she manipulated a mutual acquaintance, Farouq—who was in love with her and owed money by Abbas—into carrying out a murder plot. Using Farouq’s grievances and affection, Fatimah orchestrated Abbas’s killing and the disposal of his body in the desert.

Both were ultimately sentenced to death for their involvement in the murder.You can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms:https://linktr.ee/crimenight1Produced by:https://www.podcaistudio.com/
