Circumstances
Melinda Vasilije’s boyfriend, Ager Hasan, stabbed her to death and then fled to the U.S. He confessed to killing her on Reddit while he was on the run and continued to update his social media accounts.
Vasilije ended their year-long relationship and Hasan reportedly had “difficulty accepting” the break-up.
On April 3, 2017, Hasan smashed through Vasilije’s rear patio door” looking for her and assaulted her roommate and the roommate’s brother. He was arrested and released on the condition he would not enter Waterloo region and have no contact with Vasilije.
Hasan repeatedly breached the terms of his release by contacting Vasilije several times a day.
Vasilije nervously agreed to meet with Hasan at her apartment to talk about their relationship and asked two friends to be present when he came over. Hasan had not arrived, so the two friends and her sister went out to a club, returning at 12:30 am. They saw Hasan’s shoes outside of Vasilije’s bedroom and people talking quietly inside, so they went out again to get food. They texted Vasilije to see if she wanted anything to eat and she said no.
When they returned at 2:40 am, they found Vasilije covered in blood on the floor with a knife nearby.
On July 11, 2017, Hasan was arrested in Texas and was extradited back to Canada where he is facing a 2nd-degree murder charge in Ontario’s Superior Court.
