A 'violent, jealous, controlling' husband stabbed his wife to death as she pushed their baby in a pram after tracing her to a refuge, a court heard today.

Habibur Masum, 26, launched a 'ferocious' knife attack on Kulsuma Akter, 27, after confronting her on a street in Bradford, West Yorkshire.

She was staying at what was meant to be a secret location in the city to escape his 'violence, jealousy and controlling behaviour', a murder trial heard today.

In what jurors were told they may see as a 'chilling prediction' of what was to come, five months before killing her, Masum allegedly told his terrified wife 'I am going to murder you'.

After she moved to the refuge, Masum sent threatening messages saying he had tracked down where she was staying.
