Man, he took the “till death do us part” line really seriously.
Balenga Kalala, a Melbourne man, had suspicions that his wife, Noela Rukundo was cheating on him, so he did what he thought was the next logical step: hire some hitmen to kill her. The only problem was that not only were the hitmen not interested in killing a woman, but they actually knew Noela’s brother. And they told him everything.
The hitmen informed Noela and her brother that Balenga paid them about $5,000 to take out Noela. They also gave the siblings recorded phone conversations.
The hitmen told Balenga that they killed Noela, with Balenga then telling his own family that his wife had died in an accident in Africa.
Noela then traveled back to Africa from Melbourne in order to “Tom and Huck” her own funeral. After the mourners had left, Noela then confronted her scared-as-shit husband.
“Is it my eyes? Is it a ghost,” Noela recalled Balenga saying in an interview with The Washington Post.
“Surprise! I’m still alive,” Noela responded, touching Balenga’s arm which made him scream.
Balenga originally denied the crime, but Noela got him to confess in a phone recorded conversation.
Balenga was sentenced to nine years in prison which is more than enough time for Hollywood producers to make this into a movie.
