The Horrific Murder of Arnima Hayat

Hey everyone this week on True Crime Tuesday we are talking about a domestic violence case in Australia that resulted in homicide, please take that into consideration before watching this video. 

On 29 January 2022, Arnima Hayat was killed by her husband in a case that shocked Australia. Just 19 years old, Arnima had reportedly experienced coercive control, isolation, and abuse before her death. Her body was later discovered in a bathtub containing acid in an attempt to conceal the crime.

This video discusses the timeline of the case, the warning signs of domestic violence, and the devastating impact these crimes continue to have across Australia. This is a link to the Supreme Court NSW caselaw link of Meraj Zafar: https://www.caselaw.nsw.gov.au/decision/193d80988598bacf5e6cfe69

Domestic and family violence remains one of Australia’s most serious social issues, with women continuing to lose their lives to intimate partner violence every year.
