A man, 64, from Hoogeveen has been jailed for eight years for attempted murder and threatening his ex-wife. According to the public prosecutor, the man could not steal a divorce. The couple has been together for forty years.
The public prosecutor believes that there was an attempt at ‘femicide‘. Femicide is a term used for femicide. According to the officer, this case is a serious case of domestic violence, which almost resulted in the death of the female victim.
He called 37 times shortly before the stabbing incident on October 2 last year. He also chased her and waited for her at an apartment building on Kortewijkstraat in Hoogeveen, where the woman lived. Local residents saw the man waiting for an hour. The suspect hid meat under his jacket to avoid calling the police. The man immediately shook the woman four times when he saw her.
It is a matter of concern for the prosecutor that the man is reducing the case. “It doesn’t show self-reflection,” she said. The Hoogevener has been in custody for over a year. He called his children from prison and told them it was a ‘failed attempt’ and he wasn’t done with it yet. The public prosecutor finds that “absolutely terrifying”. In addition to the prison sentence, she also asked for a ban on location and contact with the victim.
