A woman who was angrily going to stab her boyfriend to death with a knife has ended up being killed with the same knife.
A married South African woman has died a tragic death while trying to kill her boyfriend.
According to Daily Sun SA, the unnamed woman did not like the idea of her lover dumping her to marry another woman. So the jilted married woman from MK in Mangaung stabbed the man with a knife.
It is alleged that her plan backfired – after she had stabbed him two times, he wrestled the knife from her and stabbed her dead with it on Thursday.
A member of the woman’s family told Daily Sun: “She was married to her husband for 17 years and they had four kids.
“We urged her to stop cheating. She had been cheating with different men for a long time.”
A neighbour claimed that the woman was cheating on her husband while he was at work.
Police spokeswo-man Constable Mosili Ntsika said a woman aged between 35 and 40 was stabbed dead. A 36-year-old man went to the police station to seek assistance.
He was arrested and charged with murder.
He will appear in the Bloemfontein Magistrates Court soon.
