Police arrested a Filipina domestic worker Thursday after she beat her 37-year-old boss to death with a dumbbell, a security source said.
The source told The Daily Star that the maid had also hit her employer, Nathalie Michel Selban, with a flower vase during the domestic squabble in the Metn area of Dik al-Mehdi.
The assailant reportedly telephoned Selban’s husband, Aziz Elias Farhat, to tell him that she had killed his wife.
Selban is survived by two children.
