Nine killed, including five children, in deadly Suriname stabbing
- Four of victims reportedly stabber’s own children.
- A sixth child and an adult critically wounded, hospitalised.
- Officers shot, wounded suspect after he attacked police with knife.
A man stabbed to death nine people, including five children, overnight in Suriname’s capital Paramaribo, police said Sunday, adding the suspect was wounded and arrested.
The man appeared to be suffering from mental health issues, and four of his own children were among the fatalities in the attack, which took place in and around his home, according to local media reports.
The suspect had an argument with his wife over the phone before stabbing one of the victims, his 11-year-old daughter, 44 times in the kitchen of their home, local media reported.
“A man killed four adults and five children with a sharp object at a residence in Hadji Iding Soemitaweg,” the local police said in a statement. “A sixth child and an adult were seriously injured and were transported to the hospital, according to the statement.
Officers who arrived on the scene had to open fire on the suspect, as “he attacked police with a sharp object,“ the statement said.
The man sustained a gunshot wound to the leg and has been hospitalised under police supervision, police said without identifying him.
“Further details regarding the true circumstances of this tragic attack will follow,” the statement concluded.
According to the local press, which visited the scene of the attack and spoke to the man’s neighbours in Hadji Iding Soemitaweg, a neighbourhood in the Commewijne district, the suspect had mental health issues.
Suriname’s President Jennifer Geerlings-Simons stated in response to the killings on her Facebook page.
“At a time when family and friends should stand together and support one another, we are faced with the harsh reality that there is another side to the world,” she wrote.
“A father who takes the lives of his own children and, in the process, kills his neighbours as well. I wish all those in mourning much strength, courage, and comfort in this unimaginably difficult time.“
Just days before Easter, Meghan Markle was spotted doing something most parents can relate to.
The Duchess was seen scouring the toy aisles for perfect little surprises.
On April 1, the 44‑year‑old quietly slipped into a local children’s shop in Montecito, California, emerging moments later with two bulging brown paper bags.
Inside one bag, eagle‑eyed onlookers spotted a bright box of Magic Castle Sea‑Monkeys, the instant‑life critters that have delighted kids since the ’60s.
And a deck of Magic Rabbit playing cards for filling Easter baskets ahead of the weekend festivities.
HELLO! asked child and adolescent therapist Laura Gwilt of Swift Psychology what Meghan’s toy picks might suggest about her approach to parenting.
Gwilt points out that nostalgic items like Sea‑Monkeys or classic card sets aren’t just fun throwbacks, they’re developmental gold.
“Open‑ended toys like these encourage kids to invent play scenarios rather than follow instructions,” she explains.
That kind of imaginative freedom is strongly linked to creativity, and emotional regulation.
On Easter weekend Meghan shared clips of Archie and Lilibet hunting eggs, decorating them and frolicking in the garden of their Montecito home.

King Charles, who was diagnosed with undisclosed form of cancer in 2024, has reportedly been making good progress in his health.
In a message shared on December 2025, to mark World Cancer Day, the monarch had shared the “good news” that his treatment will be “reduced” in 2026 which he described as a “personal blessing.
However, there are whispers that this has been a deliberate move to conceal any negative update about the King’s health, as the true story is different than what it seems, according to royal experts.
Royal correspondent Robert Jobson stressed that journalists were “pushed” by the Palace to “put a positive spin on the King’s health bulletins” when the reality is rather “sobering”.
He said during the The Royalist podcast that Palace aides had been focussed on only releasing positive news.
“I think it was overhyped in December. I think that the Palace were over-emphasizing the ‘good news’.”
The press spokespeople were saying, “Oh, this is good news.” They were trying to say to the journalists at the time, “Don’t interpret it any other way. This is good news.”
Meanwhile, royal editor Tom Sykes pointed out that since he shared the story about Charles having “live with cancer”, he was removed from the international media pool by the King’s powerful press office.
“Indeed, I was removed from the international media pool by the King’s communications secretary after I noted the King’s cancer was incurable, a fact the Palace has since acknowledged. My expulsion was used as an example to intimidate other journalists into toeing the Palace line,” Tom said.
He pointed out from then on, the press has been supressing the health updates as per the “privacy rules” of the King’s “powerful” press office.
