Man Commits Suicide after Failing to Kill Wife

A man committed suicide on Monday after failing to murder his wife, reported MTV.

It said that Wahan Toufoulian fired five shots at his wife before turning the gun on himself.

His wife was unscathed in the attack, which took place in the New Rawda area.

MTV reported that Toufoulian was suffering from psychological problems lately.

The couple was married for 14 years and has two children.

Their neighbors told the television station that they did not have any marital problems.

Toufoulian had however suffered from a stroke four years ago, which affected the family's financial situation, which may have been the main motive for the murder attempt, said MTV.

A member of the army, Toufoulian's case will be handled by the military judiciary.
