Moroccan woman in UAE 'killed lover and cooked him'and serving up his remains to Pakistani workers
A Moroccan woman has been accused of killing her lover and serving up his remains to Pakistani workers in the United Arab Emirates, prosecutors say
The woman killed her boyfriend three months ago, they say, but the crime was only recently discovered when a human tooth was found inside her blender.
She confessed to police, calling it a moment of "insanity", state-owned newspaper The National reports.
The discovery was only made when the victim's brother went looking for him at their home in the city of Al Ain, which sits on the border with Oman. There, he found a human tooth inside a blender, the newspaper reports.
The man went on to report his brother missing to police, who carried out DNA tests on the tooth and confirmed it belonged to the victim.
According to police, the woman first told the brother she had kicked the victim out of the home. But Dubai-based Gulf News said she later collapsed and admitted the killing under police questioning.
She reportedly said she had enlisted the help of friend to help clear up her apartment after the killing.
The accused has reportedly been sent to hospital for mental health checks.
The National newspaper in Abu Dhabi reports prosecutors in the United Arab Emirates say the woman was arrested on suspicion of killing her boyfriend of seven years after he told her of his plans to marry another from their country.
The newspaper reported that the man was killed three months ago in the Al-Ain emirate, but that the crime only came to light in recent days after the man's brother went looking for him and found a human tooth inside the woman's blender.
Authorities say she cooked his butchered remains for a traditional rice and meat dish known as machboos.
