Mother, 36, stabbed herself to death after losing her nine-year-old daughter to terminal illness

A desperate woman who stabbed herself in the neck in a busy Asda supermarket had lost her nine-year-old daughter to terminal illness just months before, it was revealed today.

DAILYMAIL.CO.UK reports:

Sobia Yousef, 36, died in front of horrified staff and shoppers in the kitchenware aisle of Asda in Shipley, West Yorkshire, on Tuesday morning.

Friends believe the death of her child five months ago caused a ‘collapse in her mental state’.

Four days of official mourning have started at her mosque in Frizinghall, Bradford.

Bradford Councillor Imdad Hussain said she had undergone treatment at Lynfield Mount psychiatric hospital after her child passed away last year.

‘It is a great tragedy which has left the whole local community and far beyond in shock,’ he said.

‘It is such a terribly sad way for anyone to end their life.

‘Sadly it seems that she lost her nine-year-old daughter some five months ago and it was that which triggered the collapse of her mental state.

‘Her daughter had been born with an illness and the doctors only gave the baby a year to live.

‘However she managed to stay alive until she was nine and there was a very special and close bond between the mother and daughter.’

He said the care and treatment she received from mental health professionals needed to be examined.

He said: ‘Questions have to be asked of the authorities and organisations involved over
what support was being given.’

One eye-witness said: ‘One of the shop’s first aiders was trying to give CPR.

‘One of the young men who works there actually saw the woman stabbing herself in the throat. He’s in terrible shock’.

The store was cordoned off for the majority of Tuesday as police forensic teams worked inside.West Yorkshire Police were alerted at around 8.37am to the store, along with paramedics.

A spokesman for the police force said the woman was pronounced dead at the scene.

People in the area tweeted their shock at the incident.

An inquest into her death is due to be opened today.

Over Here Guys!; Mosanto Develops Revolutionary New Penis-Enlarging Corn Crop. (Must Read)

The multinational agrochemical and agricultural biotechnology corporation, Monsanto, announced this morning, that they had genetically engineered a modified corn crop, designed to help men have larger penises and longer-lasting erections. The company’s scientists used genes from a number of plants to create this surprising species of transgenic corn, described as “more efficient than any penis-enlarging pill”. They notably used genetic material from a plant native to Indonesia and Malaysia, called Eurycoma Longifolia or Tongkat Ali , which is known for its ability to raise testosterone levels. They also used genes from watermelon, as its rind is a good natural source of citrulline, a dietary precursor which causes the penis to fill up nitric oxide. This relaxes the smooth muscle in blood vessels and erectile organs, augmenting the penis’ capacity for enlargement during erection. “Men will no longer have to pay hundreds of dollars to have larger penises” says Dr. Fi
