Man pleads not guilty to murdering woman in Bradford
Kulsuma Akter, who was 27, was taken to hospital in April after being stabbed several times in Westgate, and later died.
A court's heard how a man allegedly found the safe house where his wife was staying at, before murdering her in Bradford city centre.
25-year-old Habibur Masum has pleaded not guilty to all the charges.
Kulsuma Akter, 27, was stabbed to death in an attack in Bradford city centre on April 6.
Today (25/07/24) the court heard how Masum is accused of assaulting her on 2 days in November last year before allegedly stalking her and finding her at a safe house.
Masum appeared at Bradford Crown Court where he denied murder, two charges of assault, one count of making threats to kill, one charge of stalking and one of possessing a knife.
The court heard the allegations of assault and threats to kill relate to two days last November.
Masum is accused of stalking Ms Akter between November and April, with the charge alleging he "tracked her movements and located her at a safe house, sent her messages of a menacing nature which contained threats to kill another and photos and videos of the area and premises where she was residing".
The charge alleges he caused her "alarm or distress" and to "fear that violence would be used against her".
He has been remanded into custody until his next hearing at the same court on September 27.
A trial date of November 18 was set at an earlier hearing.
The baby is safe and was not harmed in the incident, police said.
