Jumatatu Posted February 6, 2005 A Somali refugee who stabbed his ex-wife's husband to death outside a school must serve at least 15 years of his life sentence, a judge has ruled. Ali Sayeed, 50, was earlier convicted of murdering Mustafa Sayeed outside Holte School in Lozells, Birmingham. The court heard Sayeed, of Park Avenue, Handsworth, believed his former wife had brought dishonour to him in the close-knit Somali community. Mr Justice Fulford said there could be no excuse for the violent slaying. The court heard when Sayeed saw his ex-wife with her new husband on the morning of the killing it brought the grievance to a head. Mustafa Sayeed was stabbed twice in the back while parents and pupils at the school looked on in horror, the court was told. source : Man's killer must serve 15 years Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
