The municipal police have arrested a 30-year-old man, suspected of committing a murder in morning of January 16. The man is accused of killing his pal's concubine in a drunk fight, IPN reports.

According to a press release of the General Police Inspectorate, the man visited one friend's place, where they got drunk. An argument burst out between the suspect and the 38-year-old female partner of the host, following which he repeatedly stabbed her in the stomach with a kitchen knife. Everything happened right before the eyes of the victim's partner, but he fled the apartment out of fear. The police were alerted by the neighbors who heard screams.

The suspect is in custody and charged with premeditated murder, facing a sentence between 10 and 15 years.
