Woman Commits Murder to Fake Her Own Death after Finding Lookalike on Instagram

Reportedly, a German woman has been accused of a heinous crime — allegedly murdering her lookalike found on Instagram, 23-year-old beauty blogger Khadidja O., in a bid to fake her own death. The accused, identified as Sharaban K. (pictured left in the photo above) teamed up with her boyfriend Sheqir K. to carry out the brutal killing in Ingolstadt, Germany last August.

Khadidja O. suffered over 50 stab wounds, and her body was abandoned on the back seat of Sharaban K.’s Mercedes. The culprits went into hiding after the crime, but the case took a shocking turn when the victim was initially misidentified as Sharaban K. due to the disfiguration of the corpse. An autopsy later revealed the true victim, leading to an investigation known as the “doppelganger murder” in German media.

The accused, Sharaban K., has now been charged with murder, with the prosecutor’s office stating that she had been reaching out to women on Instagram who bore a resemblance to her. They suspect that Sharaban K. aimed to escape family issues by faking her death — a motive that was further corroborated by evidence showing her contacting the victim, Khadidja O., on Instagram.

Sharaban K. lured Khadidja O. into meeting by promising beauty products, then, alongside her boyfriend, picked up the victim in a Mercedes under false pretenses. The crime took place in a forest, where Khadidja O. was brutally stabbed. The injuries to her face were so severe that she became unidentifiable.

Upon learning that the victim was not Sharaban K., the police delved into her social media activities and uncovered her interactions with multiple lookalikes on Instagram. This led them to theorize that the murder was a part of a scheme to fake her own death. As a result, Sharaban K. has been charged with murder and could face a life sentence if convicted. Her boyfriend, Sheqir K., has also been charged as an accomplice and similarly faces imprisonment.
