Cairo - An Egyptian man was arrested for raping his own mother last week, Masrawy reported.
The crime happened on Wednesday at Kafar Al Sheikh when the 25-year old tied up his mother and raped her several times.
Hours after the attack, the 48-year old victim reported the crime to the police, who arrested her son immediately.
The suspect, who is a general security officer, confessed to the crime and told investigators that he did it because his mother is a "dishonorable" woman.
"She doesn't fear anyone, not even my father and we all know that she does illicit things. That's why I wanted to prove to her that I am a man," he added.
The case has now been transferred to Kafar Al Sheikh's public prosecution office who is expected to set a date for the man's trial.
