A man and his ego...

Man to hang for killing his wife
By : Sushma Veera - NST

KUALA LUMPUR: His wife is dead. Now he is to be hanged for murdering her.

Their 10-year-old son will not have the care and love of his parents, all because Herman Aliseman, 32, could not control his temper. The boy is now in the care of his grandmother in Sarawak.

Yesterday, despatch rider Herman was sentenced to death by the High Court for murdering his wife, Noor Azura Abdul Aziz, 24, at the staircase leading to his mother-in-law's house in Taman Pusat Kepong, Jinjang, Sentul between 10.30pm and 11.15pm on June 12, 2005.

The couple had been separated for two months prior to the incident and Noor Azura had asked for a divorce but Herman did not agree to it.

A total of 21 prosecution witnesses testified at the trial and Herman took the stand under oath for his defence.
Noor Azura, who worked at a shopping complex in the city, had 14 stab wounds -- three of which were fatal.

One penetrated the heart, another the kidney and the third, the neck.

Herman looked nervous before the decision was delivered by judge Datuk Mohamad Zabidin Mohd Diah.

Zabidin said the defence had failed to raise reasonable doubts and Herman was guilty of murder. "Herman Aliseman, you will be hanged until you die."

Counsel Maj (R) Ghazali Nik Taib said he would appeal the decision.
