An Orlando woman has confessed to stabbing her younger sister multiple times in the heart after learning she’d been flirting with her long-distance boyfriend through a video game, police say.
Fatiha Marzan, 21, says she stabbed her sister Sayma, 20, three to four times in the heart at 4:30am on September 26 but called the police around 7:30pm – 15 hours later – to investigate her crime to display.
Sayma played the video game Valorant with her sister’s boyfriend and often sent him messages through the game’s chat, according to a report by the Orlando Sentinel.
Both witnesses and Fatiha said the older sister was not comfortable with the relationship Sayma had with Fatiha’s long-distance boyfriend.
After learning that her boyfriend had told Sayma he loved her, Fatiha bought a “dagger-style” knife set from Amazon.
She hid the knives in a closet and waited for the Marzan family to fall asleep before stabbing Sayma to death in their shared bedroom.

Sayma had played the video game “Valorant” with her boyfriend and later found out from him that he loved her
Both witnesses and Fatiha said the older sister was not comfortable with the relationship Sayma had with Fatiha’s long-distance boyfriend. After learning that her boyfriend had told Sayma he loved her, Fatiha bought a “dagger-style” knife set from Amazon.
“Fatiha knew she had to wait until her family was asleep to stab Sayma because she didn’t want anyone to know about the incident,” the affidavit reads.
“Fatiha made a conscious decision to kill her sister Sayma and the decision was in her head at the time of the murder.”
Since the sisters shared a bedroom and a bed, Fatiha could see Sayma talking to her boyfriend, whose name was not given, she told police.
Fatiha confronted the couple and told them that she was uncomfortable with the way Sayma spoke to her boyfriend. However, after several confrontations over the issue, Fatiha said she suspected her sister didn’t respect her.
She waited until 4:30 a.m. to stab her younger sister to death while she was sleeping. Sayma woke up during the attack and said, “What the hell?” and help.’
Fatiha said her sister “moved too much.”
Hours after killing Sayma, she said she had started contemplating taking her own life, but was dissuaded from doing so by another sibling.
The two sisters reportedly shared a room and bed at the family home on Southern Charm Drive in Orlando.
The Orange County Fire Department pronounced Sayma dead 20 minutes after arriving at the scene.
Fatiha is currently being held without bail in the Orange County Jail and faces a first-degree murder charge.
Fatiha found out about the couple’s relationship and bought a dagger-like set of knives from Amazon, which she promptly hid in a closet for weeks
