Recently, there have been two high-profile incidents in Australia, where a Sydney woman killed and dismembered her husband after discovering him cheating, and a young Chinese jockey unfortunately fell from his horse during the race and was dying.
Sydney woman dismembered by her husband's cheating and murder: the tragic end of a thirty-year marriage
According to the Telegraph on October 8, Nirmeen Noufl, a 53-year-old woman in Sydney, was killed and dismembered in anger after discovering that her husband Mamdouh had a lover in Egypt and transferred money to him. The two have been married for more than 30 years and have 8 children, this marriage should have been a happy family life, but due to the betrayal of her husband, it went to an irreparable tragedy.
According to the report, a few months after Nirmeen found out that her husband was cheating, her anger gradually accumulated, and she eventually got into a heated argument with her husband at their home in Greenacre, and the argument turned into a deadly conflict. Police revealed that Nirmeen killed Mamdouh during an altercation and then dismembered his body using a chainsaw and knife, and scattered the body pieces in rubbish cans across Sydney.
Police said Nirmeen used a series of tactics to try to cover up her crime after killing her husband. Not only did she clean up DNA traces at the crime scene with chemicals, but she also burned her husband's clothes to destroy evidence. In order to mislead Mamdouh into believing that he was still alive, Nirmeen took his phone and social media accounts, through which he continued to disguise his presence.
During their investigation, NSW police found that Nirmeen had used her husband's social media accounts to contact his lover in Egypt and ask them to return money previously transferred. This act sparked further suspicion and investigation by the police, which eventually revealed the brutal truth about her murder of her husband.
More than a year after Mamdouh's disappearance, police finally arrested Nirmeen last week. At the time, she was being treated at Bankstown Hospital and police then searched her home and found more evidence, including traces of her cleaning up the crime scene.
Mamdouh's disappearance has not only attracted police attention, but has also sparked widespread discussion in Sydney's Egypt community. Mamdouh was known as the "Man of Gold" by community members, and his sudden disappearance left many friends and neighbors confused.
Khaled Yousef, a member of the Islamic Association of Egypt, said Mamdouh's friends had thought he might have moved to another state or overseas and stopped contacting his former friends. "We kept calling him, but no one answered, and we thought he was ignoring us until the truth came out," he said. ”
NSW Superintendent Danny Doherty said at a press conference that Nirmeen not only murdered her husband, but also put his body in plastic bags and disposed of in trash cans in residential and industrial areas in south-west Sydney.
"She carried out a massive cleaning of the house and even resurfaced the floors to destroy all traces of the crime," he added. In addition, police will file formal charges against her for murder and dismemberment.
The Chinese jockey was seriously injured in a fall from his horse and was in critical condition
At the same time that the murder in Sydney caused a social shock, a major accident occurred in Adelaide in southern Australia. On 8 October, 23-year-old Chinese jockey Ivy Lam fell from his mount Jacob's Gate while racing the 1500m Willow Grove Stud Handicap at Gawler Racecourse in South Adelaide in critical condition.
About 800 meters into the race, Ivy's horse appeared to be behind the other competitors, and she fell heavily off her horse. After the incident, emergency responders rushed to the scene to provide emergency treatment to the Hong Kong Jockey Club cadet jockey.
According to Australia's Channel Nine, medical staff confirmed after an on-site examination that Ivy suffered a serious head injury and is in critical condition. She was rushed to the hospital for further treatment, and doctors are doing their best to save her life. It is reported that the accident occurred at around 4:45 p.m. local time, and due to this incident, the horse racing of the day was temporarily suspended before the final race.
The Hong Kong Jockey Club later issued a statement confirming that Ivy Lam's horse suffered a heart attack during the race, which caused her to fall. "Ivy has been taken to the hospital and is currently receiving emergency medical care," the group added. ”
Speaking to Channel Nine, racing commentator Terry McAuliffe said: "Our hearts go with Ivy and we pray she can do well at Gawler. ”
Ivy's crash not only shocked the Australia racing community, but also horse racing enthusiasts around the world prayed for her to survive this crisis.
