A man is behind bars, accused of murdering his estranged wife in a southern Sydney home.
Emergency services were called to a Bexley property just before 6pm on Wednesday, following reports a woman was unresponsive.
Paramedics tried to save 30-year-old, mother-of-three Amira Moughnieh, but she died at the scene.
Police arrested 39-year-old Ahmad Hodroj at the same property and took him to Kogarah Police Station, where he was charged with her murder.
Acting Premier Prue Car said her thoughts were with the woman's family after the tragic incident.
"We know that police are investigating what has happened here," she told reporters in Queanbeyan on Thursday.
"But we want to make clear that domestic violence is unacceptable in every single situation.
"The NSW government is committed to cracking down on domestic violence."
Hodroj did not apply for bail and did not appear in person during a brief hearing at Sutherland Local Court on Thursday.
The case will be heard next at Sydney's Downing Centre on August 31.
