Jealousy and envy can kill sometimes

Part One: The Beginning

In the ancient city of Tangier, where the charm of history and culture is evident in every corner, lived an ambitious young man named Iyad. Iyad was a vibrant and passionate young man who lived in a small apartment overlooking the alleys of the old city. He pursued his passion for art and creativity, and he was known for his unique talent in drawing and music.

Iyad's beginnings as an artist dated back to his childhood years, where he would draw with clay colors on the walls of his simple home. Over time, his talent grew and evolved to a point where he could mesmerize people with his artistic works. His fame quickly spread on the internet, where he shared his videos and artistic works through social media platforms, and soon he became known among art and creativity enthusiasts.

Iyad was a beloved figure among everyone in the city, as his constant smile and lively spirit attracted others to him. He was not interested in fame or wealth, but rather focused on sharing his passion and inspiring others with his work.

Part Two: The Fateful Meeting

One day, Iyad received a message on his mobile phone from a girl named Emily. Iyad didn't know Emily before, but she was a talented visual artist who had seen his artistic works online. They decided to collaborate on a joint artistic project, and this marked the beginning of an exciting new creative journey.

Communication between Iyad and Emily began regularly, as they exchanged ideas and mutual encouragement. Emily was enthusiastic about the idea of collaborating with Iyad, impressed by his artistic talent and creative spirit. Meanwhile, Iyad felt excited and enthusiastic about opening a new chapter in his artistic career.

They discussed the idea and the project's details, and developed a solid plan to achieve success in their project. The idea revolved around creating a unique artistic experience that combined their different talents in drawing and music, expressing it in a way that touched people's hearts.

In an exciting moment, they agreed on a meeting time at Iyad's apartment to discuss the project more clearly and to plan its execution.

Part Three: The Dangerous Turn

Emily arrived at Iyad's apartment on the appointed day, wearing a black cloak that concealed her features. She entered the apartment cautiously and met Iyad, who was waiting for her with a broad smile on his face.

The discussion between them about the details of the joint artistic project began, and things went well at first. Ideas were exchanged between them with enthusiasm, and creativity seemed to flow from every word.

However, what was unexpected was the tragic turn that occurred in a moment of Emily's anger. The discussion turned into a heated argument, as Emily accused Iyad of stealing her artistic ideas. Emily became furious and refused to cooperate with him on the project, which angered Iyad who felt unjustly treated and frustrated.

Part Four: Discovery of the Crime

It didn't take long before the neighbors began to worry about not seeing Iyad for several days. Iyad was an active and popular person in the neighborhood, and his absence was unusual. One quiet night, the neighbors smelled a strange odor emanating from his apartment.

When the neighbors decided to check on him, they found the door wide open. They entered the apartment to find Iyad lying on the floor in a pool of blood. They immediately called for an ambulance and the police.

The ambulance and police teams arrived quickly at the scene. The medical team examined Iyad and confirmed his death immediately. At the same time, the police began collecting evidence...

Contradictions in Emily's statements: Emily's statements changed during the investigation, raising doubts about her credibility. At times she denied knowing Iyad, and at other times she claimed to have had a relationship with him.

External interventions: The police faced pressures from various sources, which hindered the progress of the investigation. Some individuals tried to influence the investigation results to protect Emily or for other reasons.

Lack of experience: Some police officers lacked sufficient experience to deal with such complex cases. Murad struggled to gather and analyze evidence, delaying the discovery of the truth.
