I tell the story of Akshar Ali, Yasmin Ahmed and Sinead Wooding in this first episode of season 2.

 

Akshar and Yasmin murdered Sinead Wooding, Akshar's wife, in the West Yorkshire city of Leeds in May 2017.

 

Sinead's body was then wrapped in a duvet before being dumped in a wooded area and set alight.

 

Both Akshar and Yasmins received life sentences for the murder with minimum terms of 22 years.
