Afghan Man Sentenced to Life for Killing Romanian prostitute in Limerick An Afghan national, Habib Shah Shamel, has pleaded guilty to the murder of 28-year-old Romanian prostitute Geila Ibram in Limerick and received a life sentence. The PSNI arrested Shamel in Belfast after fleeing there by bus from Dublin following the incident. During the arrest, police recovered a rucksack containing a handwritten letter addressed to his mother in which he spoke of a wish to "sacrifice his life to Allah." During interviews with police, he said he had gone to the escort to "satisfy his sexual needs'' because of something he had viewed online. Investigators also found a USB drive with disturbing video content, including footage depicting executions, scenes of dismemberment, propaganda supporting jihad, and instructions for making and detonating IEDs. The court heard one clip even showed a man encouraging his young son to carry out a suicide bombing. The fatal attack occurred on April 4, 2023, in Ms. Ibram’s Limerick apartment, where she had arranged to meet Shamel for sex. He paid her €100, which she passed to a colleague. Moments later, the colleague heard screams. Ms. Ibram had been stabbed five times. Afghans are fast-tracked through Ireland’s asylum system with a 99% grant rate. Authorities insist that all asylum seekers are thoroughly vetted. #NewToTheParish 🔗irishmirror.ie 👉🏻join Late Stage Ireland
