Angry Mob Attacks Man As He Tries To Behead His Wife In Egypt

A footage showing the moment a man nearly be-headed his 'wife' before neighbours intervened, has emerged online. 

He was seen crouched over a woman lying in the street. It appears he is trying to steady himself while he holds her head and attempts to cut her throat. But just in time, a man appears from behind and kicks the apparent assailant violently, knocking him over before other onlookers intervened and the man is soon running from a mob of angry men.

The violent clip was uploaded to video sharing site LiveLeak and the caption suggests it was captured in Cairo, Egypt.
