Russian Man Arrested for Ex-Wife's Murder in Dubai
A man named Albert Morgan from Russia traveled to Dubai and killed his ex-wife, Anastasia, who was a flight attendant.
He stabbed her many times in her hotel room because he thought she was working as an escort.
The police found out who did it by looking at the hotel's cameras.
Morgan had been in prison before for drugs and tried to join the army to avoid jail, but he was caught and is now in custody for two months while the police investigate.
Albert Morgan, a 41-year-old Russian legal consultant, stabbed his 25-year-old ex-wife Anastasia to death in a Dubai hotel.
Morgan gained access to her room by posing as a guest and convincing a maid to let him in.
Anastasia, a flight attendant for Russian airline Pobeda, was found with 15 stab wounds.
Morgan's motive was the belief that Anastasia worked as a high-end escort during their marriage.
Morgan had a prior seven-year prison sentence for drug charges and attempted to join the military to avoid jail time.
