A Russian flight attendant, Anastasia Nikulina, was found stabbed to death in her Dubai hotel room. She had recently moved to Dubai seeking a fresh start, reportedly fleeing a stalker from Russia. Russian media reports allege her alleged stalker, Albert Morgan, followed her to Dubai with an accomplice, gained access to her room, and attacked her. Nikulina sustained multiple stab wounds. Morgan reportedly fled back to Russia shortly after the incident. Friends indicated Nikulina had previously paid Morgan in an attempt to end his harassment.
