CAIRO, Egypt - A woman weighing 352 pounds sat on her husband's head until he suffocated following a dispute over his will, police officials said Sunday.

Fawakih Ibrahim Abdel-Latif killed her husband, Sayed Ahmed - who weighed 121 pounds - Saturday after discovering he had left more land in his will for his four children from his first wife than the three he had with her.

Islam allows men to have up to four wives at the same time.

Abdel-Latif, 62, pushed her 84-year-old husband to the ground and, with his face down, sat on his head until he died, said the officials, speaking on customary condition of anonymity.

Police arrested Abdel-Latif, who confessed to killing her husband. She could face the death penalty if convicted.
