Man who killed wife as she pushed pram given life sentence
The Guardian
|July 23, 2025
A man was jailed for life with a minimum term of 28 years yesterday after he was convicted of murdering his estranged wife, stabbing her a number of times as she pushed their baby in a pram.
Habibur Masum, 26, of Burnley, Lancashire, was found guilty of the murder in June after a trial at Bradford crown court. He was also convicted of one count of assault, one count of making threats to kill, and a third count of stalking.
Kulsuma Akter, 27, was shopping in Bradford when Masum confronted her. She was living in a refuge at the time, having fled the home they shared owing to his domestic abuse.
He confronted her while she was walking with a friend and pushing her baby son in a pram. Masum had previously sent her messages described by prosecutors as “menacing” that contained threats to kill and photos and videos of the area and safe house where she was staying.
