Marwa El-Sherbini - stabbed 18 times in a German courtroom

Just 2 weeks after the media frenzy over Neda, the Iranian woman who was killed during the political protests, Marwa El-Sharbini was stabbed 18 times in a German courtroom by the man she was suing for racism, and her husband was shot by the security guard when he tried to save her.

Weird that it was all over Arab news, but never broadcast in the U.S. aside from a short mention by CNN and BBC. Read more from The Guardian at http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2009/jul/07/german-trial-hijab-murder-egypt
