(Baonghean.vn) - Wanting to mend their relationship after a period of conflict, Nghia went into his wife's private room to talk. However, after exchanging words, Nghia took a knife and slashed his wife many times, causing her death.

Nghe An Provincial People's Court has just opened a criminal trial of defendant Vo Van Nghia (58 years old), residing in Hung Loc Commune, Vinh City, for the crime of "Murder". The victim in the case is the defendant's wife - Ms. Nguyen Thi L. (born in 1969).

The indictment shows that around the beginning of December 2022 (lunar calendar), due to a conflict, Nghia and his wife did not sleep together but slept in separate rooms.

Late at night on March 13, 2023, after coming home from exercising, Nghia saw his wife lying alone in the room so he went in and said, "Let's forget everything and live to make our children and grandchildren happy."

In response, Mrs. L. said: "There is nothing left between you and me, go to your room and sleep." At this time, Nghia said to his wife, "If you don't sleep with your husband, who will you sleep with?" Mrs. L. said that she slept with an animal, making Nghia angry, so he threatened, "Then I will show you." After his wife said, "Do whatever you want," Nghia went back to his room.

Even though he had gone back to his room to lie down, Nghia was very angry when he thought back to his wife's words. The husband went to get a knife and attacked his own wife. Suddenly stabbed, Mrs. L. got up and called for help. Although she was taken to the emergency room, the victim died from 13 stab wounds that punctured her lungs and severed her ribs...

At the trial, the defendant admitted to the crime as charged in the indictment. Nghia expressed remorse for killing his wife and apologized to his children, relatives, especially his maternal siblings. The defendant asked the court to consider reducing his sentence so that he could return to his children and grandchildren soon.

The panel of judges determined that the defendant's criminal behavior was an especially serious case, directly violating the right to life of a human being and therefore needed to be severely punished.

However, it is also necessary to consider some mitigating circumstances for the defendant such as his honest confession, repentance, family contributions to the revolution, and the victim's family's request for a lighter sentence. Considering the entire case, the court sentenced Vo Van Nghia to 19 years in prison.
