New Delhi: A petty quarrel over a wet towel turned fatal in Greater Noida, claiming the life of a South Korean national in a shocking murder case involving his live-in partner.
The victim, Duck Jee Yuh from Cheongju city in South Korea, was working as a branch manager for a mobile company in India. He shared a flat in Sector 150’s ATS Piyush Highways Society with his partner, Lunjeana Pamai, hailing from Bishnupur in Manipur.
According to police, the incident unfolded late Saturday night around 2 am. After Duck Jee Yuh used a towel, Lunjeana mistakenly picked it up post-bath, leaving it wet again. This mistake irked the victim, who allegedly abused her verbally. Both were reportedly under the influence of alcohol.
As tensions escalated, Lunjeana decided to leave with her bag. When Duck Jee tried to stop her, he grabbed a kitchen knife. In the scuffle, she snatched the weapon and stabbed him once in the left chest. The blade pierced deep, reaching the heart and causing instant death.
Police interrogated the accused, who confessed to the act, citing provocation. A post-mortem confirmed the single fatal wound, and the body was handed over to the South Korean embassy for further procedures.
This gruesome episode highlights how minor domestic disputes can spiral into tragedy, leaving authorities probing deeper into the couple’s relationship dynamics.
