A Bosnia bodybuilder, identified as Nermin Sulejmanovic, took to Instagram on Friday morning, August 11, in a shocking turn of events, sharing a live-streamed video that would ultimately lead to a tragic shooting rampage, leaving three dead, including the murderer.
In a disturbing video, Sulejmanovic forewarned viewers about witnessing a live murder. The footage captured him taking a gun and firing a fatal shot into a woman’s forehead. Heartbreakingly, the cries of the couple’s infant daughter served as a haunting backdrop to the gruesome scene.
Sulejmanovic, 35, disturbingly confirmed that he had spared the life of the infant. He later declared, “I warned everyone that it would come to this. She has been hiding my child for eight days. I’m waiting to load my weapon and move on.”
Reports indicate that Sulejmanovic had a dual identity – working as a fitness coach while also being associated with a gang and having a history of convictions related to violence, fights, and drug trafficking.
In the aftermath of the live-streamed murder, Sulejmanovic posted another video on Instagram, claiming to have shot at least two other individuals while evading the police pursuit.
Authorities in the northeastern Bosnian town of Tuzla released a statement that revealed the tragic outcome – apart from the three fatalities, three others were wounded before the killer chose to end his own life upon being located, just before his capture.
While the police are yet to provide further details or potential motives behind the shootings, they emphasized that individuals who expressed support for the murderer’s actions on his Instagram posts could potentially face legal consequences.
Nermin Niksic, the Prime Minister of the Bosnian Federation, expressed his deep sorrow, stating, “I have no words to describe what happened today in Gradacac. The murderer took his own life in the end, but no one can bring back the lives of the victims.”
The incident remains a tragic reminder of the consequences of unchecked violence and the profound impact it leaves on the lives of those affected.
