Moscow, August 17: In a bizarre incident, a woman here stabbed her husband to death just because he forgot her birthday and returned home from work empty-handed, it was reported here.
Lyalya Tupikova, 45, said that her husband Khalpik didn’t remember her birthday.
When he returned home from office in Astrahan in southern Russia, she expected a bunch of flowers and a present. But, Khalpik got nothing for her.
She had cooked a candlelight dinner for two, said the Daily Mail.
“It was all too much for her and suddenly during the meal she seized a kitchen knife and stabbed him just above the heart,” a police spokesman was quoted as saying.
Khalpik, 50, collapsed and died soon afterwards.
