- Wow! Bro. What a disgusting comment to be made in such a tragic moment. Have you no hearth and or shame my friend? I do not know the deceased, but nonetheless, if you have nothing good to say, then let it be. May Allah welcome her home.

- Alfonsu, This comment you have made is a serious comment. I am a sister of F (the deceased victim) who was loved, the kindest most honest woman there was in this world. Unless you were related to the "murderer" I do not know why you would say this?

- it is sad but this is between Allah and also the husband and the deceased as Allah has decreed. No individual has the right to take a life.

- And ALFONSU: Unless you know what you are talking about, why not keep your opinions to yourself? Nobody wants to hear your vile comments and judgements, least of all Fatou's family and friends. Take your disgusting comments elsewhere. Shame on you.
