A jilted boyfriend murdered his girlfriend who is a junior doctor, for refusing to marry him. The man then tried, unsuccessfully, to end his own life by stabbing himself in the stomach. The couple had been seen talking animatedly several hours before her body was found in a village in Kazakhstan.
Teacher Shyngys Bekenov, 26, proposed to Nazerke Bekzhanova, 21, who had recently graduated from medical university.
