Would you take a life to escape all those problems overwhelming you?

The chilling story of Sharaban K., a 23-year-old woman in Germany, seems straight out of a psychological horror movie, but it is painfully real. 

Trapped in family conflicts, she devised a macabre plan to fake her own death: find her perfect double on Instagram and murder her. That is how she came to Khadidja O., an Algerian beauty blogger who shared her same features, dark hair, and build. 

Under the false promise of giving her beauty treatments, she lured her into a deadly trap. The victim received more than 50 stab wounds, disfiguring her face so that Sharaban’s family would believe the body abandoned in her car was hers. 

A crime that shows human darkness.🖤
