On Wednesday morning, 51-year-old Marijke wanted to leave for work from her home in Zwijndrecht, Flanders, but a man hiding his face in a hoodie suddenly smashed her skull, leaving the woman badly injured on the driveway of her home.
Neighbours had heard the screams and saw a man fleeing. Marijke died on the spot from her injuries. Meanwhile, it is clear that the perpetrator is the ex-husband. The couple broke up 10 years ago, but continued to argue over custody of their three children and financial issues in recent years. According to the relatives, there was allegedly only recently a ruling around the financial settlement of the fighting divorce, in the woman’s favour.
The ex-husband confessed to the facts to the police and was arrested.
