Fellowship named after murdered student
A medical fellowship program will be launched in the name of international student Aiia Maasarwe who was raped and murdered when living in Melbourne.
The 21-year-old's devastated father, Saeed Masarwe, will launch the fellowship in late November, it was announced on Wednesday.
The Aiia Maasarwe Memorial Medical Fellowship Program is set to provide financial support to Palestinian physicians training in Israeli hospitals.
Codey Herrmann has pleaded guilty to beating Ms Maasarwe over the head with a metal pole, sexually assaulting her, covering her in flammable WD-40 spray and setting her on fire at Bundoora in January.
