Šefka Hodžić (born 1943; fate unknown) was a Bosnian woman convicted of the 1969 murder of her pregnant friend Alija Hasanović.
For months before the killing, since childless Hodžić had learned of her friends pregnancy, she began stuffing her shirts to appear pregnant, indicating premeditation.
The right path was pointed out by a pathologist who put forward the thesis that the crime was committed by a barren woman eager for a child.
Her husband, Nedžib, her mother, brothers and sisters left her, and the Hodžić family sold their property and moved from the village of Jusić to Kalesija near Tuzla.
[2] Šefka claimed that others only brought her a child, that she had no idea when and in what way it was taken, and that it was only when the baby died early the next morning that she learned that Alija had been killed the day before and that her stomach was opened.
