A chilling social media post turned fatal for a young woman in Colombia.

On November 26, 20-year-old Yuleisi Briyith Jiménez Vásquez, was shot dead in her own home after sharing a message that read: "Merry Christmas, just in case I get killed in the coming days."

Yuleisi was reportedly lying on her bed at home when she heard an unsettling noise, prompting her to investigate.

A man, who remains unidentified, had pulled up outside her residence and gained entry.

He then fired a single bullet, hitting Yuleisi in the face.

The assailant quickly fled the scene, riding as a passenger on a waiting motorcycle.

Despite the swift response of horrified neighbors who rushed Yuleisi to a local hospital in Barranquilla, medical professionals were unable to save her.

Local law enforcement is now grappling with the question of whether Yuleisi's social media post was a premonition or a tragic coincidence. One line of investigation suggests that the killing may be linked to a broader conflict, potentially involving organized crime.

Local media have reported that Yuleisi had been receiving death threats from the notorious criminal organization known as Los Papalópez.

The threats are believed to have escalated after her romantic involvement with a man identified as Jhonny Alfonso Manjarrez Polo, also known as "Guasón" or Joker. Manjarrez is reported to have held a significant role as the "chief of hitmen" for the rival gang Los Pepes.

The investigation into Yuleisi's death is ongoing as authorities work to unravel the complex web of connections and motivations behind the incident.

Gender-based violence is not uncommon in Colombia.

In 2022 alone, the country witnessed the murder of 612 women due to their gender.

According to Statista, the incidence of femicides rose from 571 to 630 between 2019 and 2020, marking an alarming increase of over ten percent. This surge occurred amid the social isolation measures implemented in response to the COVID-19 outbreak
