JEDDAH: The mystery surrounding the kidnapping and rape of at least 13 girls since 2006 that had challenged Jeddah’s entire police apparatus was solved with help of a nine-year-old girl.

A 43-year-old schoolteacher and married father of five is in custody thanks to the girl’s recollection of events that forced her to become the 13th (or according to some reports, the 16th) victim of a brutal crime.

The man has been linked to the crimes with DNA evidence. Over the past four years up to 30 other suspects had been investigated.

According to a report in Saturday’s Al-Madinah newspaper, the girl was able to identify the house she was taken to because of the muezzin’s voice from the nearby mosque, as well as the smell of sheesha inside the home where she was sexually assaulted.

Police drew a near perfect sketch of the house and the neighborhood with help of the girl’s memory.

The man also made one damning mistake: he used his own vehicle to kidnap the girl, and it was parked near his home.

On the day before the arrest, Maj. Sultan Al-Malki of Jeddah police took the girl close to the house of the suspect in an unmarked car.

The suspect was standing in front of a nearby shop and the officer brought the car close to the man so that the girl could identify him. The girl did not confirm him that he was the man but said he looked like him, the source said.

On that day detectives did not confront the suspect. However, late in the night they brought the girl again to the location to make sure that she made no mistake in identifying the house. She had no doubt about the house because of the pungent odor of sheesha. She had earlier said that the man had smoked sheesha while she was his captive.

Police later went to the man’s house to say he needed to go to the station to give a statement about a traffic accident he had been involved in, and that it would only take a few minutes.

Waiting at the station were the girls who had been raped. They all identified him as their assaulter, and five were able to positively affirm that the house was the scene of the crime. And, finally, the nail in the proverbial coffin: the investigators say the man’s DNA matched samples taken from the girls’ clothing.

Over the years, police tracked and suspected several men, some of whom were engaged in suspicious activities at local malls.

Police say they were able to nab one of Jeddah’s most notorious criminals thanks to the low-key approach taken by the victims’ families. Had the media whipped up panic about the crimes the man might have changed his strategy to be more careful in covering his tracks. Because he didn’t think the cops were on his trail, he didn’t change his methods and his victims were able to finally bring him to the scales of justice.

don't u think better option is to remove his skin and then let him sit on burj khalifa top after 10am up to 4pm :)

but he should be inside a glass room, so that there is no wind, also so A/C's top unit be place inside that glass room, and .....

how about stripped his skin away then put some lime on his wound..

By ingeniero• 20 Jun 2011 14:43

hanging him till death is not sufficient in such cases, and according to shariah law, if found guilty, married one's are killed by stoning and unmarried are beaten by leather stick 100 times..

By ingeniero• 20 Jun 2011 14:41

he will be buried half in ground and then they will throw stones on him till he dead... and this all will be done in public...

that's what Islamic law says..

That 45 year old teacher definiltely did not rape the girls in the classroom at school which means he must have somehow managed to get them to meet him outside school then he enticed them with probably candy or cake or food or maybe dolls and toys to come home with him...It is highly unlikely that parents would let their young pre teen and teenage daughters to go and visit their teacher at home after school.. I do agree that parents should be more responsble towards their children.

bisdak, i think hanging him will not be enough as a penalty..even his death is not enough as payment for his sins..

on a serious note, teachers have been known to play dynamic roles in the lives of students. Teachers, who can best be described as, THE SCULPTOR’S OF HUMAN MIND! they're consider as the pupil's second parents. They advise and direct us towards our future careers..unfortunately, what the teacher done to the defenseless victims was unforgivable..he ruined the promising future for his innocent victims..i hope justice will be serve to them..

As far as I know , No!

Males must teach boys and females girls.

Theer are exceptions in Universities, but in such cases the teacher teaches using video link..

They are two completely different types of cases. In this instance, they are mainly young schoolgirls who were lured by the rapist using differing means and sexually assaulted...

I am really surprised that this time they actually believed the girls and caught the rapist instead of putting those poor girls in the jail accusing them of seducing the old man.. The poor Australian woman's rape ordeal is not that old..

cmon nw dnt go into flash back

The authorities did not lock up all those poor 13 or is it 16 girls in the jail.. Like they did to that Australian woman who reported a rape case somewhere in the Middle East.. I almost thought that reporting a rape is like convicting yourself to adultry in this region..

I hear ya.Human beings are developing hearts of demons, just as the prophetic narration warns, so such evils are widespread even in holy lands,Audubillah!

And to think all this is happening in God's own country.. Please note that I am refering to Saudi Arabia and not Kerela..

The kiddo may have saved the lives of many potential victims..May Allah reward her immensely in this world and the next.

As for the demonic perpetrator I hope and pray he is put to death pronto!
