KOZHIKODE: More information has emerged in the incident where a drug addict had killed his wife in Thamarassery last evening. The dead was Shibila (21) of Kakkad in Eengappuzha. The police have arrested her husband, Yasir. Reports said the accused had given a statement to the police that his target was his father-in-law, Abdurahman.
Yasir blamed Abdurahman for his wife estranging from him. He bought a new knife to kill his father-in-law and kept it in his hand. He told police that he did not intend to kill Shibila and that he loved her so much. Yasir was not intoxicated at the time of the attack. The accused will be produced before the Thamarassery court and remanded.
The two got married after being in a relationship for years. Although there were problems from the beginning, Shibila did not feel like speaking badly about her husband to her family since it was a love marriage.
Shibila knew that Ashiq, who had killed his own mother, was friend of Yasir. The two had an argument over this and she then decided to part ways with him. Shibila went to her own house with her daughter.
Shibila had told Yasir several times that she does not want to continue with him. He constantly threatened to kill her. Despite filing a complaint with the police, his harassment continued.
He arrived at Shibila's house in his own car at the time of breaking the Ramzan fasting. He stabbed Shibila in her neck while she was eating. The attack was in front of their three-year-old daughter.
Abdurahman and his wife Haseena also sustained injuries in his attack. Both are undergoing treatment at Kozhikode Medical College. Abdurahman will undergo an emergency surgery. The accused also tried to attack Nassar, a neighbor who rushed to the house after hearing the commotion.
