Elahe Mirzai
Age: 30
Stabbed to death: May 4, 2024
Residence: Mashhad, Razavi Khorasan
Origin: Iran
Children: -
Perpetrator: Husband
Excuse: Dispute about divorce
On the evening of May 4, 2024, Elahe and her sister and brother were at home. She had agreed with her husband to separate amicably and they were supposed to go to court the next day to file for divorce. However, her husband called her and said he wanted to talk to her before officially filing for separation: "He said he had bought sweets for reconciliation and asked her to meet him at the corner of the street." Elahe refused because a few years ago, Reza had attacked her with a knife and caused a deep wound on her thigh. She told him she would only agree to see him if he came to her father's house. Reza agreed and rang the doorbell. As soon as Elahe opened the door, Reza violently rushed towards her and murdered her with multiple knife stabs.
