Confessing to the crime, the suspect said his wife was sleeping when he carried out the heinous act, saying he purposely killed his wife because of her comment to him.

“I can’t imagine my own wife telling me that if I died, she will remarry. I lost my temper and inflicted injuries on her neck with a matchete, which led to her death.“I am not regretting killing her since she wanted me to die, I killed her so that she will not remarry. She should not have said that to my hearing. There is power in the spoken words; so let her go. Allah will send her to hell fire for that unguarded comment,” he said.
