The sister of murdered primary teacher Sabina Nessa said if their family was a "normal British white family" they would have been treated better.

Her sister, Jebina Yasmin Islam, said newspapers had treated her sister's murder "differently" to the murder of Sarah Everard.

"My sister didn't get as much headlines, I feel, at the start," she said. "Maybe was it down to her ethnicity?

"She didn't get the front pages on some of the papers, and in Sarah Everard's case she did."

Commenting on the treatment of her family, she said: "I think it's just down to our ethnicity to be honest.”

Koci Selamaj was jailed for life for attacking Ms Nessa in a park in south-east London in September 2021.
