A shocking murder in Greater Noida has left the local community stunned after a woman from Manipur allegedly stabbed her South Korean live-in partner to death. The incident took place late at night inside a rented apartment in a residential sector of the city, police said.
The couple had been living together for several months. Neighbours described them as quiet and said they rarely interacted with others. On the night of the incident, an argument reportedly broke out inside the apartment. During the confrontation, the woman allegedly attacked her partner with a knife.
Residents nearby heard shouting and loud noises and immediately alerted the police. Officers rushed to the spot and found the man lying on the floor with multiple stab wounds. Emergency teams shifted him to a nearby hospital, but doctors declared him dead on arrival.
Police detained the woman at the scene and took her into custody for questioning. Investigators recovered the knife believed to have been used in the attack and sent it for forensic examination. Officers are now trying to establish the exact sequence of events that led to the killing.
Authorities have registered a murder case and started a detailed investigation. The post-mortem examination will determine the precise cause of death. Police are also questioning neighbours and acquaintances to check whether the couple had previous disputes.
Officials informed the South Korean embassy about the incident and said they would follow standard diplomatic procedures. The crime has raised concerns among residents, many of whom said they never expected such violence in the area.
Police increased patrolling in the locality to maintain order and reassure the public. Investigators said they would leave no angle unexplored and promised strict action based on the findings of the probe.
