In August, 37-year-old Karim Selim was convicted of the murder and torture of several women in Egypt .

The gruesome acts, all of whose victims were sex workers, took place between November 2023 and May 2024. According to media reports, Selim even built a soundproof room to commit his crimes in.

Lobna Yakout (33), the ex-wife of the murderer, was herself a victim of his violence. Today she is speaking publicly for the first time about her traumatic experiences.

As People reported, the 33-year-old has been living in her native UK since 2022. Before that, she lived with her son Zayn and Selim in Cairo until they separated in 2020.

The 33-year-old stated that it was no surprise to her that the 37-year-old was capable of the crimes, but it brought back traumatic memories. "He almost killed me many times," she claimed.

Lobna suffered a particularly hard blow shortly after the separation: Karim did not bring the then five-year-old boy back to his mother after a meeting. She has not seen her son since. Instead, she received repeated threats from her ex-husband.

Although her ex-husband is now in prison, Lobna's ordeal is far from over. Her main goal is to find her son again. After Karim was arrested, she says Zayn was handed over to the 37-year-old's mother.

The local authorities are not offering her any support. Nevertheless, the 33-year-old is not giving up. As soon as she can embrace her son again, she wants to go to the beach with him. "That's our thing, we love the beach," she says wistfully.

Lobna is currently in Cairo looking for Zayn. She has started a GoFundMe page to cover the costs of the search and is sharing her story on TikTok to raise awareness and support.
