A woman was arrested for stabbing a man in Colombia after she confessed to committing the crime in retaliation for an alleged sexual assault against her underage daughter. The incident took place in the Ospina neighborhood, where the woman attacked the man, identified as Juan Guillermo 'N', with at least 20 stab wounds that caused his immediate death.
The 52-year-old mother was with her daughter in a wheelchair when the argument that led to the fatal attack occurred. According to local authorities, there were previous reports of mistreatment and sexual abuse against the minor. However, the deceased's relatives have denied the abuse allegations and stated that there had been prior conflicts with the attacker.
The attack was captured on video by witnesses, showing the woman chasing the man with a knife until he fell to the ground, at which point he was stabbed in front of onlookers who did not intervene. Despite the attacker’s confession, the deceased's family has questioned her version and claims that the allegations of sexual abuse are untrue.
The woman was arrested in a nearby hospital along with her daughter after the attack. Authorities have confirmed that the investigation is ongoing to clarify the facts and determine the corresponding responsibilities in this tragic event.
