A Bolton woman told her husband 'I love you' as he battered her to death - because he wanted to have a relationship with her sister. Fahima Yusuf was attacked with a wheel brace as she slept by her husband Ahmed Seedat.
He then choked or suffocated her as their children - aged two and five - slept in the next room, the Mirror reports . He buried her in a shallow grave which he had got contractors to dig, telling them it was going to be a pool for the family's children at their home in Australia. The court heard that unfaithful Seedat had planned the murder - searching "burying a cat" and "burying someone aliv" online days before the killing. Seedat, originally from Durban, South Africa, had also searched "Can you marry brother in law if sister dead muslim".
Mum-of-two Fahima Yusuf's heartbreaking last words were revealed as Seedat - who had been hiring a prostitute for years - was sentenced to at least 23 years in prison. Ms Yusuf, originally from Bolton, woke up after the first blow but was vulnerable and easily overpowered by him as he continued his attack on August 31 last year, Supreme Court Judge Bruno Fiannaca said.
