The first female serial killer in homeland


A road traffic offence eventually alerted officers and led to her arrest.A 60-year-old woman who had read about the murders told police she had escaped from a light-coloured Renault car after becoming suspicious of a female driver.After checking cars matching that description, their attention was drawn to Mahin by records showing she had been fined following a recent road accident.

Psychologists who studied Mahin’s case have described her as a woman driven by frustration, loneliness, and suppressed anger. Her actions weren’t rooted purely in greed or thrill-seeking; they seemed to arise from a sense of powerlessness — a desire to regain control over a life that had long spiraled beyond her reach. She was also described as highly intelligent, articulate, and emotionally complex — traits that made her both fascinating and unsettling.
