Dortmund – Alim K. (24) ambushed his pregnant ex-girlfriend with the knife.
Then the student stabbed her 76 times, killing Juvy-Ann (22) and their unborn child.
But for Judge Thomas Kelm, this act was not murder, only manslaughter. Yesterday the killer was sentenced to ten years imprisonment by the Dortmund Regional Court (NRW); he can apply for parole after serving two-thirds of the sentence.
The victim’s parents were stunned by the mild sentence. The mother collapsed crying in the courtroom.
The victim’s father, Hans Joachim F., said in tears to BILD: “A bank robber gets the same punishment. And here someone butchers my daughter and may get out of jail before he’s thirty. How can that be?”
The judge’s reasoning: Alim K. had acted in the heat of the moment and was not in control of himself. Heat of passion? As a reminder: Alim K. stabbed a total of 76 times.
Judge Kelm explained: “The victim insulted him before the crime, that is a violation of his honor. Only then did he go berserk and pull out the knife he had brought with him.”
And: “She opposed him, did not put up with everything in the relationship. Finally: “It was also a crime against himself. Because he wanted the child.”
Damn much understanding for a brutal killer.
