KOTA BHARU: A 42-year-old single mother was believed to have been stabbed to death by her former husband in Taman Desa Darul Naim here early today.
Kelantan police chief Zaki Harun said police found the victim’s body with 13 injuries in the living room of a rented house at 3am.
He said a 51-year-old man had been arrested to facilitate investigations.
“Preliminary investigations by the police found that the suspect is the victim’s second former husband.
“The couple was divorced six years ago,” he said when contacted today.
Police did not rule out jealousy as the motive for the murder.
He said according to witnesses, an argument broke out between the victim and the suspect, who believed his ex-wife was having an affair with another man.
“The woman was then heard screaming and then came out of a room covered in blood before collapsing in the living room,” he said.
The victim had three children, aged between 14 and 24, from her first marriage.
Zaki said police seized a knife, believed to have been used in the killing. - FMT
