A man who killed his wife in front of his baby son was put in jail for life.
27 -year -old Kulsuma Akhar was living in a refuge in Bradford when she was badly stabbed by her husband, Habibur Masum, as she pushed her seven -month -old child into a pram in April last year through the city center. The child was untoward.
Last month, 27 -year -old Masum of Lmington Avenue, Bernley was convicted of murder after a trial in Bradford Crown Court.
While sentenced to at least 28 years in the same court on Tuesday, Judge, Mr. Justice Kotar told Masum that he attacked “Ms. Akar” vicious and mercilessly, stabbing 26 times.
The judge said, “You took out a knife from your pocket and attacked him in a full scene of passers -by.”
He said that Masum stabbed her, deliberately targeted her neck, “she was stamped” finally before “cutting her throat”.
The judge said: “The wounds you had been were inaccessible, as your intention was.”
