A CRUEL mum who beat her son to death for failing to learn parts of the Koran by heart has been jailed for life and ordered to serve a minimum of 17 years. Sara Ege, 33, was convicted of murder after it was revealed she had burned the body of her seven-year-old boy Yaseen before trying to claim he had died in a house fire.
But a murder trial heard she treated little Yaseen like a dog and repeatedly beat him with a stick for failing to memorise religious texts quickly enough.
Ege collapsed as the sentence was delivered at Cardiff Crown Court and had to be helped, trembling and sobbing, from the dock.
She had been praised as a brilliant mother to seven-year-old Yaseen but was convicted of his murder by a jury at the same court last month.

Trivia: Islam allows you to beat your wife with a stick provided the stick is not thicker than your thumb.
