Habibur Masum, who stabbed his wife Kulsuma Akter to death as she pushed their baby in a pram in April last year, has been jailed for life at Bradford Crown Court with a minimum term of 28 years.
Habibur Masum, 27, was found guilty of murdering Kulsuma Akter in a “ferocious” knife attack in broad daylight after tracking her to a women’s refuge in Bradford where she had been staying to escape him after he held a knife to her throat at their home in Greater Manchester.
He left his wife bleeding to death and calmly walked away, leaving their seven-month-old son behind.
The family of murder victim Kulsuma Akter have said in a statement “we will never forgive the monster who took Kulsuma from us,” after her killer was jailed for life. They added they have been left with a “painful void in our lives”.
The Crown Prosecution Service described the murder as “callous” and “shocking”.
