A recent video going around online shows a tragic moment where an Indonesian woman lost her life during a live broadcast on Facebook, with many viewers watching it happen live.
Sinar Harian reported how the victim, Hertalina br Simanjuntak, was singing with her family at home when her husband fatally stabbed her on November 2.
He stabbed her 5 times with a knife
In the 32-second live video, family members inside the house can be seen reacting in shock and terror, screaming in fear as Agus Herbin Tambun suddenly attacks and stabs his wife as she is singing karaoke.
According to reports, he stabbed her 5 times from behind, catching her completely off guard while she was live-streaming at their home in North Sumatra.
His motive was jealousy
The suspect, however, fled the scene after the incident, and the victim’s family then took her to Chevani Hospital, where she was pronounced dead.
After a report was filed with the police, Agus was successfully arrested within less than 24 hours while hiding at a relative’s house.
Initial investigations revealed that the suspect admitted his actions were driven by feelings of hurt and jealousy because Hertalina was still on good terms with her ex-husband.
It was later revealed that the knife used as the weapon belonged to the victim and was typically used for slicing fruit.
