Husband and family jailed for murdering pregnant wife
Naila Mumtaz
A husband and three members of his family have been jailed for life for murdering his pregnant wife in an apparent attempt to rid her of an evil spirit. Mohammed Tauseef Mumtaz, 25, had to be carried out of the dock by his father after being jailed for a minimum of 13 years for the murder of Naila Mumtaz, who was smothered at her Birmingham home in 2009. The killer's brotherin-law, Hammad
Hassan, was also imprisoned for at least 13 years, while his mother and father, Salma Aslam and Zia Ul-Haq, were both given minimum terms of 15 years by a judge at Birmingham Crown Court. Mumtaz, his parents, both aged 51, and Hassan, 24, had denied both murder and manslaughter but were convicted of the more serious charge following a 12-week trial which ended in July this year.
Youth Unemployment... Continued from page 4 Helping hands The Financial Skills Partnership, the employer led body for the financial services industry, has created an innovative new route into the finance sector for unemployed graduates through its Graduate Foundation College. Starting this month in London, the Graduate Foundation College will start putting bright unemployed graduates through a concentrated structured 10-week training programme which major sector employers such as Aviva, Just Retirement and Scottish Widows have helped provide, ensuring its quality and industry relevance. Successful graduates will then enjoy six months of paid industry experience with a small or medium-sized advisory firm.
The graduates will be trained up to the first module of the regulated investment advice competence qualification before being introduced to the advisory firms. Liz Field, CEO of the Financial Skills Partnership, told Asian Voice, “...We’re inviting small firms to register to this initiative and gain the benefit of new enthusiastic recruits with bright ideas.” The Asian community has progressed through mutual help and empathy. Asian Voice urges its fellow readers across Britain, to take on an apprentice even if it's on part time basis. We have already started the ball rolling and it is your duty to help your community and the 'future of your nation'- this country's youth! (* Name changed on request)
