Married man kills lover for forcing marriage

A Kenyan national confessed to killing his lover, 26-year-old Wang J, a Chinese, because she was forcing him to marry her. 

“I told her that as a Christian, I cannot have two wives, and besides my wife now lives here with me,” the man said in his confession, “Then, she got angry and threatened to inform the police that I had sex with her, so I lost my temper and strangled her for seven minutes until she collapsed. But, I didn’t want to kill her.”

According to media reports on Sunday, the Dubai Police arrested the Kenyan, an administrative manager at Emirates airline, after the Chinese woman’s friend reported her missing. 

The friend told the police that Wang had told her she was going to meet a Kenyan friend.

During his interrogation, the Kenyan man told the police that he had met the woman at around 10pm and they had dinner at a Kentucky Fried Chicken outlet at a gas station on the Dubai-Al Ain Road.

He claimed that she left him to go for a business meeting. He said that the next day when he went to her office to give her some stuff she had left in his car, he could not find her.

On the third day when he called her, her mobile was switched off.

The police officials then asked the suspect to bring his car in.

They noticed that the Kenyan man looked worried when he came to the police station with the car.

He later confessed to his crime.

He added that after tangling her he drove to an area near Al Maktoum airport in Jebel Ali. There he put the body into a drain and drove away.
