An 18-year-old male was ordered held in custody on Monday for at least four weeks, after he stabbed and killed a 17-year-old friend on a playground in suburban Bærum Sunday afternoon. Shocked witnesses included small children. The stabbing shocked witnesses on Sunday.
The stabbing victim was just 17 years old.
Watan Faramarzi, age 17, died from a single stab wound in the chest.
The stabbing occurred after the two friends reportedly had quarreled at a party the night before. They agreed to meet on the playground in a housing complex in Rykkinn, to settle their differences.
The meeting ended with the older teen stabbing the younger. The victim died on the scene after being stabbed in the chest.
A witness saw the assailant throw down a knife and run off. He turned himself in to police just a few hours later.
His defense attorney, Vidar Lind Iversen, said the two had been good friends for a long time and his client denied the killing was premeditated. "He is very sorry about what happened and claims it was a deeply tragic accident," Lind Iversen said.
The stabbing was witnessed by many residents of the area and children, who were out in the sunshine Sunday afternoon. One resident, a man who sat on his balcony and heard the pair arguing, ran to help after he saw the stabbing and the victim fall to the ground. His wife told newspaper Dagbladet that he was well-trained in first-aid, but couldn’t stop the victim’s bleeding.
Family members and friends of the victim gathered at the scene Sunday evening, to lay down candles and flowers. The victim emigrated as a child from Iran to Norway, and his assailant was Norwegian-Pakistani. An acquaintance of both told newspaper Dagbladet that one had said unpleasant things about the other's family at the party Saturday night, "and that's forbidden in these circles
Convert to a Muslim or die you infidel. I was surprised to see they described this criminal as a Muslim. But if the Muslims get what they want, he will be set free because he was a Muslim and it was a religious act.
Coming soon to America.
Ah, the tragedy of Muslim on Muslim violence.
Beats Muslim on “infidel” violence, though!
Was it one of those "Your mamas so fat.." thingys?
Suni vs. Shia. It’s a civil war. The Norwegians should pull out.
The Spaniels surrendered.
We see this over and over again. Cultures (and people) that care deeply what others think and say about them are insecure and slaves to self-destructive behavior. Cultures (and people) that don't care what others think and say are secure and are invariably superior.
I think this is because the former let others do their thinking for them and the latter think for themselves.
Reminds me of the line in Police Squad, “No Ma’am, killing a gang member in this state is a $10 fine, you can mail it in.”
I understand that Norway used to be a peaceful country. Check out the web site, Gates of Vienna, for some great posts on the effect of Muslims in the Scandinavian countries.
Solution: Midnight basketball.
Impossible.
Islam is a Religion of Peace!
“after he stabbed and killed a 17-year-old friend”
More of an acquaintance, I’d say... friends usually don’t stab each other. I’ve had lots of quarrels with my friends, and I haven’t stabbed any of them...nor they me.
The stabbing victim was just 17 years old.
Watan Faramarzi, age 17, died from a single stab wound in the chest.
Hold old was this guy again?
Statistically, Mennonites are less prone to violence.
I think it's more one of those, "Your Imam's so fat..."
“He is very sorry about what happened and claims it was a deeply tragic accident”
The murder was "not" premeditated as demonstrated by the fact that the unnamed muslim brought a knife rather than an explosive vest.
