The guard and the security teams were able to track down and arrest the suspects in less than an hour after receiving a report of the murder.

The male sibling said that he killed the victim for having an illegal relationship with his sister and on the day of crime, the killer’s sister accompanied him to facilitate his entry into the victim’s apartment.
He also claimed that the victim blackmailed his sister with indecent photos and videos that the victim threatened to send to her husband which angered her brother who came with her to kill him and plotted the plan to get out from the apartment as the owner of the apartment to avoid suspicion.
