Sydney, October 8: In a shocking incident in Sydney, a woman allegedly killed and dismembered her husband after discovering he was having a secret affair. Nirmeen Noufl, 53, reportedly confronted her husband, Mamdouh Noufl, 62, upon learning of his relationship with a woman in Egypt, leading to a fatal argument. Following the alleged murder, she is accused of using a saw and knives to cut up his body and disposing of the remains in plastic bags at various locations throughout the city.

The chilling case first came to light when Mamdouh Noufl was reported missing by family and friends in July 2023 after not being seen since May of the same year. Concerns grew as his social media accounts remained active and his bank transactions suggested he was still alive, leading investigators to suspect foul play. As detectives delved deeper into the case, they discovered evidence that pointed to the involvement of Nirmeen Noufl. Reports from The Mirror indicate that the police began treating Mamdouh's disappearance as suspicious, prompting an extensive investigation by the homicide squad. Australia Shocker: Man Who Posed As YouTube Teen Star Pleads Guilty to 119 Sextortion Charges, Gets 17 Years Jail Term.

On October 7, 2024, Nirmeen was arrested following the execution of a search warrant at the couple's home in Greenacre. Police allege that after killing Mamdouh during their argument, she dismembered his body using a drop saw and knives before hiding the remains in plastic bags. Detective Superintendent Daniel Doherty revealed that there was an extensive cleanup at the couple's residence, with indications of reflooring, suggesting efforts to cover up the crime. Australia Shocker: Sydney Female Teacher Has Sex With Student in Her Car, Sends Video Pleasuring Herself to Minor; Suspended.

Following her arrest, Nirmeen Noufl was charged with murder, with authorities treating the incident as a case of domestic violence. Detective Superintendent Doherty emphasised the brutality of the crime, calling it both "macabre and bizarre." He also noted that Nirmeen allegedly took control of her husband's phone and social media accounts after his death, further complicating the investigation and misleading those who thought he was still alive.

Nirmeen has since been denied bail and is set to appear in court on December 11, where she will face the charges against her. The investigation into the circumstances surrounding Mamdouh's death continues as police work to gather more evidence and piece together the events leading up to this horrific crime.
