This is the chilling moment a jealous husband ‘intercepted’ his estranged wife in the street before taking her to his flat where he stabbed her more than 30 times in an ‘utterly terrifying’ attack.
Pawel Chmielecki, 40, repeatedly knifed Marta Chmelecka, 31, in the face and neck after she refused to rekindle their relationship before wrapping her body in a bloodstained duvet.
She was found four days later when police were alerted by her family after they received suspicious text messages suggesting someone else was using her phone.
