A woman and her mother hire a hitman to kill her ex-boyfriend. But the alleged killer turns to the police. Now the women have to go to prison for several years.
For the order of a murder two women from Wolfenbüttel have to go to prison for several years. The Braunschweig Regional Court sentenced a 41-year-old defendant to five years and six months in prison on Tuesday. Her 69-year-old mother received a three-year prison sentence. The criminal court is convinced that the two women commissioned a supposed contract killer to murder their daughter’s ex-boyfriend.
According to the presiding judge, the 69-year-old Iranian and her 41-year-old German-Iranian daughter wanted to prevent the daughter’s 36-year-old ex-partner from seeing their child regularly. An acquaintance was therefore paid 17,000 euros for the crime at the end of last year. The 33-year-old Syrian appeared to play along for a long time, but let the plan fly and appeared as an important witness in the process.
“It was the biggest mistake of my life”
After his tip, the police listened to a supposed last meeting and then arrested the two women. The approximately 40-minute audio recording of the last conversation became the key piece of evidence. “He has to die because he’s an asshole,” the younger defendant said. Anyone who heard this recording might no longer have any doubts, the judge said in his verdict.
“It was the biggest mistake of my life,” said the 41-year-old defendant in her last words following the hearing of evidence. During the proceedings, she admitted the allegations to a large extent, but rejected some aspects of the indictment. She had apologized to the intended victim’s family and to her mother. She was silent on the allegations.
