Dalila, 32, tries to kill her mother after a nightmare

Placed in preventive detention on August 14 for attempted murder of her mother the day before, Dalila N., a young woman of 32, was presented Thursday before the Brussels criminal court.

Dalila took action on August 13 at the family home in Laeken, Belgium, after a nightmare in which she saw herself suffocating her mother. This is how after waking up, the thirty-year-old joined her mother who was sleeping in her bed and tried to suffocate her with a pillow. Her little sister, who shared the bed with their mother, managed to avoid the worst. Determined to see her disastrous project through to the end, Dalila returns to the kitchen and grabs a butter knife. But her sister manages to disarm her, relays The Last Hour.
