A Turkish man killed his pregnant wife by throwing her off a cliff after posing for selfies, and then trying to win her life insurance, prosecutors claim.
Hakan Aysal was arrested for the murder of his 32-year-old wife Semra Aysal and their unborn baby during a holiday in Butterfly Valley in Mugla Turkey in June 2018, reports The Sun.
Aysal, 40, allegedly pushed his wife – who was seven months pregnant – off the cliff after taking photos. According to the exhaust valve, she fell a thousand meters dead and was killed immediately.
After Serma’s death, the man then tried to claim a life insurance policy which he entered into for her worth 400,000 Turkish lira, or about $ 57,000. But he was denied due to a police investigation.

Prosecutors charge that the murder was not an “accident”, and were premeditated because he wanted her money.
A court has ruled that Aysal should remain in custody for premeditated murder.
Semra’s brother, Naim Yolcu, said his brother-in-law apparently showed no emotion after his sister died.
“When we went to the Forensic Medicine Institute to get the body, Hakan was sitting in the car,” Yoluc recalled during a video interview in court.
