Woman finds her lookalike on Instagram, kills her to fake her own death

A German woman has been accused of killing a lookalike she found online in an attempt to fake her own death.

The alleged murderer has been identified as Sharaban K, 23, while the victim was a beauty blogger identified as Khadidja, 23.

This incident took place in Ingolstadt, Germany last August, according to the sources.

It was revealed that Khadidja 0 was stabbed about 50 times after which, her body was left on the back seat of Sharaban K’s Mercedes.

Sharaban K reportedly had an accomplice identified as Sheqir K who she claims to be her boyfriend. Reports have it that they have both gone into hiding.

As soon as the body was discovered, police traced the car’s registration to Sharaban K’s family and given the current state of the corpse investigators assumed that she was the victim without conducting a DNA test to confirm.

However, later on, after an autopsy was conducted, it was discovered that the actual victim was Khadidja 0 which prompted an investigation into the case.

In recent news, it was reported that Sharaban K has been charged with murder after searching Instagram in a bid to find a victim who matched her physical appearance.

Attorney General Veronika Grieser said:

“It has been confirmed that the accused had contacted several women via Instagram before the act. who seemed to look similar to her. It can be assumed that the suspect wanted to go into hiding, due to internal disputes with her family, and fake her own death.”
