CAIRO: An Egyptian carpenter has been arrested after he fatally defenestrated his older brother who had told him off for bad manners, state news agency MENA reported on Sunday.

The man, a 26-year-old identified as Reda, threw his brother out of a fourth-floor window in the Egyptian province of Qalubia after being rebuked for quarrelling with his neighbours and taking drugs.

He was using unspecified drugs at the time, MENA reported, adding that the carpenter had confessed to the crime. -AFP
