The 26-year-old Lebanese woman, who was a mother of three kids, was buried in Hayy al-Salam cemetery in Lebanon, local media reported.
According to some neighbors, Hasan Zaiter received many calls from an unknown person who was telling him that his wife was cheating on him. They added that the husband has been suffering from several neurological disorders for a long time.
While others said that the victim's husband found a picture of his wife "without a hijab," so he "lost his mind" and killed her.
