On Tuesday, the arranged questioning of the nine-year-old son was played during the trial in Agder district court. Among other things, it emerged that the father had said that the sister and mother deserved to die. The father of seven (56) is charged with the double murder of his wife Najah Alsharaa (42) and daughter Khadijeh Saed (20) at Søm in Kristiansand on 28 March last year. On Monday, he himself gave evidence in the Agder district court, where he pleaded not guilty to double murder. The father is also charged with having carried out the murders with his son as a witness. Couldn’t go out In the questioning of the son, which was done only hours after the murders, the then nine-year-old boy explained in detail what he saw when his father allegedly attacked his mother and sister with a hammer and a knife. That day the son was driven home by the school nurse because he had injured himself in cannon ball. Afterwards, the mother and sister are said to have wanted to take the boy out of the house. The son explained that the father allegedly said that they could not leave the house alone because they were women. The women are said to have reacted to this, and that is when the accused is said to have found a knife and hammer, and started to attack them. When the mother shouted that the son had to call the police, the father reportedly took the phone from him. The father also allegedly said he was going to kill the other daughters as well. – He said I had to kill The defendant’s defender Mohamed Hamzaoui tells news that they have concrete evidence to be able to say that the client has a history of mental problems, and that the defendant therefore believes he is insane. – As I see it, many alarms have gone off, but unfortunately have not been picked up, says Hamzaoui. In court, the defendant explained that he woke up at four in the morning on March 28, 2022, and met a figure he says was a demon. – He said I had to kill. Then I woke up in the hospital, he explained. The defendant has said that he does not remember anything he did before he woke up in the hospital. The defendant’s defense attorney Mohamed Hamzaoui says his client is still working on his memory from the day of the murder.

The police asked him about his web log on the phone, where he is said to have applied for exorcism. In court, he says that he does not remember this. He is said to have said that this demon figure has made decisions on his behalf. The 56-year-old’s mental state was examined after the incident. He has been assessed as sane when the murders took place, the report from the forensic psychiatrists shows. Five days have been set aside in the Agder district court for the trial. Double murder in Kristiansand Two women were killed with a stabbing weapon in Kristiansand. A man in his 50s has been charged with two murders. At 1.20pm the police received a report of a serious incident of violence in a residential area on Søm in Kristiansand. Two adult women were taken to Sørlandet Hospital. They were declared dead shortly after arrival. The perpetrator reported himself at the police station in Kristiansand. It is a man in his 50s. He was charged with the murder of two people. The police confirmed that there was a relationship between the accused and the two dead. Both the accused and the dead are originally from Syria. The police in Agder confirm that they are receiving assistance from Kripos in the investigation. The police also state that they do not yet have a certain identity of the two dead. The accused has not yet been questioned. According to the police, it is due to the man’s condition. He is admitted to the hospital in Arendal. The police are requesting a full forensic psychiatric assessment of the accused. Today’s scheduled prison meeting had to be canceled due to his mental health. The man has still not been questioned by the police. The police state that the deceased are 42-year-old Najah Alsharaa and 20-year-old Khadijeh Saed. The deceased are the accused man’s wife and daughter. Alsharaa is a Syrian citizen and Saed is a Norwegian citizen. The accused was not present at the prison meeting, which was held in the form of an “office business”. The prosecution has asked for four weeks’ detention of the accused. Defense attorney Nils Anders Grønås at the law firm Wigemyr asks the court to consider shortening the period of detention. Show more – We have lived in fear One of the defendant’s daughters also testified in court on Tuesday. She spoke of less and less freedom for the members of the family. The family came from Syria in 2016. They first lived in Lyngdal, but later moved to Kristiansand. Then the family must have encountered several problems with the father. – We have lived in fear, said the daughter from the witness box. She told about violence against her mother in the home and that they were rarely allowed to visit friends. In Kristiansand, they were only allowed to go to and from school and had to ask permission for everything else, according to the daughter. She also said that her father constantly overheard conversations they had. The daughter believes he does not have mental disorders and that he knows what he did on the day he killed his sister and mother.
