Muslim woman murdered in Essex
OP - June 18, 2014, 03:10 PM

Apparently she was a student from Saudi Arabia studying at the University of Essex, was wearing a hijab and so it could have been a hate crime murder

+++++

A woman has died after being attacked in Colchester - and police say her full Muslim dress and veil may have been a factor.

The woman, who has not yet been identified, was walking on the town's Salary Brook Trail at 10.40am on Tuesday when she was violently beaten and attacked with a knife or other bladed weapon.

Paramedics tried to save her but she died at the scene from injuries to her head and body.

Essex Police have said the woman, who was in her 30s, was wearing a dark navy blue full length robe (known as an Abaya) and a patterned multi-coloured Hijab headscarf.

Detective Superintendent Tracy Hawkings said officers were keeping an open mind about the motive of the attack.

But she added: "We are conscious that the dress of the victim will have identified her as likely being a Muslim and this is one of the main lines of the investigation, but again there is no firm evidence at this time that she was targeted because of her religion."

The murder took place in Colchester
A 52-year-old man has been arrested in connection with the incident.

Detectives want to hear from anyone who used the trail between 8.30am and 11am on the day of the killing.

They have also asked residents to check their gardens and rubbish bins for any discarded weapons or blood stained clothing.

A post-mortem examination is due to take place on Wednesday afternoon.

Officers have said they are not ruling out a link between this murder and that of James Attfield, a vulnerable man with brain damage who died after being stabbed more than 100 times at a park in the town in March.

Officers will be carrying out additional patrols in the area.

This is terrible.

If it indeed was on account of her dress, though there is no excuse for taking anothers life, it demonstrates that strains of islamaphobia/xenophobia still permeate throughout our society, as if any of us need a reminder of that.

That is so horrible!! It must have taken her family quite a bit of convincing to send her so far away from home, and then some fucker thinks he has the right to viciously attack and kill her I hope he is caught soon and left to rot behind bars for a long time.

Her name is Nahid Al Manea and She was Saudi international student at the University of Essex,

Quote
The Saudi Arabian Embassy confirmed Prince Mohammed bin Nawaf bin Abdulaziz, ambassador to the UK, had contacted the woman's family. Prince Mohammed bin Nawaf expressed in a telephone call on Tuesday to the brother of the deceased his sincerest condolences to her family."

The woman had a brother living in the UK, the embassy added.

well wait for complete news before jumping to conclusions..

An update: Religion NOT a motive.

it doesn't say that religious hate was not a motive, just that it isn't clear at the moment what it was ^^^

there was a similar murder in the same area a couple of months ago of an innocent man stabbed to death in a similar way as he walked alone through a park

So it could be a psycho serial killer

but obviously the concern is that this may have a racist motive until proven otherwise

^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Thanks for the correction Billy. My initial reaction was that race had something to do with it, but, that's not always the case and it is less likely the cause.

I live near Colchester and things like this are very bizarre. I must say, over the past few years, the influx of covered of women is becoming more prominent. This CAN be seen as being extremely foreign to people around here - not exactly the most open to change or new shades if skin.

Anyway, whoever the murderer is - I hope they find the prick and don't let him get off lightly.

Ditto.

`But I don't want to go among mad people,' Alice remarked.
`Oh, you can't help that,' said the Cat: `we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad.'
`How do you know I'm mad?' said Alice.
`You must be,' said the Cat, `or you wouldn't have come here.'
