A 38-year-old man was stabbed to death after fighting over his 16-year-old ex-girlfriend.
A 38-year-old man has reportedly lost his life as a result of his obsession over his promiscuous, underage lover. This happened in Palapye, Botswana.
The teenage girl, who was 16 years old, dumped the 38-year-old man for her new boyfriend, who was 25 years old. The man couldn’t handle the fact that his ex-girlfriend was seeing someone else, so he decided to make a move on him.
The man broke into the girl’s home at 3 am and attacked the couple, ending up getting into a fight with the new boyfriend, which led to the man being fatally stabbed. The police have started an investigation into the matter.
According to the Palapye Central Police Station commander, Superintendent Moses Serojane, the girl’s parents had recently discovered that their daughter was in a relationship with the 25-year-old man and reported it to the police.
The man broke into the girl’s home, wielding a metal rod and a knife, and threatened her family while they were sleeping. The 25-year-old man defended himself during the fight and stabbed the attacker to death with his own knife.
The suspect has been charged with murder and is currently in police custody. It will be up to the courts to decide if it was self-defence or not.
