Man says he killed friend for trying to have sex with him
A 22-year-old Pakistani jobless man, identified as N.K., faced the charge of premeditated murder of a compatriot man by stabbing, in the Court of First Instance on Tuesday.
Another Pakistani, a 23-year-old worker, identified as K.K., stood trial in the same case for sheltering N.K. in Abu Dhabi while knowing about the crime he committed. K.K. is accused of moving N.K. to his relative’s place and coming to Dubai to take his belongings.
According to prosecution records, N.K. intentionally killed the victim and he had planned the murder in advance over previous disagreements and grudges against the victim. On the day of the incident which dates back to January, N.K. became angry following a quarrel and brandished a knife with which he stabbed the frail and ill victim who was lying on his bed in a labour accommodation in the Jebel Ali Industrial area. He stabbed him twice deeply in the abdomen.
N.K. did not leave until he was sure that the victim became motionless. He left and locked the door behind him. The victim died four days later at hospital. The forensic expert said that the stab wounds were deep and affected the liver.
A Pakistani driver, 20, who is the victim’s roommate, said that the victim called him by phone about 10.30pm and told him that he was stabbed by N.K. The roommate went to the victim’s room and found it locked from outside. The victim was in deep pain and could not speak. He called the police and ambulance.
A police lieutenant said that they arrested K.K. first and he admitted that N.K. was in his cousin’s place in Abu Dhabi. During interrogations, N.K. admitted having stabbed the victim, claiming that he did it to protect himself as the latter tried to have sex with him.
The roommate told the prosecutor that it was impossible that the victim could have asked to have sex with the defendant as he was known for his good conduct. The victim’s brother, a 30-year-old driver, said that his brother told him before his death at hospital that he had disagreements with the defendant.
The defendant held grudges against the victim when the latter did not let a friend of N.K. share their accommodation which was crowded.
