This time it’s a pregnant teenager, originally from Pakistan, living in Manchester, followed to her new home by the Dark Ages: Husband of ‘honour killing’ teenager arrested on suspicion of murder.

The husband of a pregnant teenager found stabbed to death has been arrested on suspicion of her murder.

The 24-year-old husband of Sana Ali, 17, was arrested by murder squad detectives along with 16-year-old youth.

Mrs Ali and her unborn child both died following the attack at her home in Bury, Greater Manchester, on Friday. Mrs Ali, who was originally from Pakistan, moved to the UK five years ago.

Detectives earlier said they had not ruled out the possibility that the murdered teenager had been the victim of an ‘honour killing’.

Mrs Ali, 17, who had been married for six months, had multiple knife wounds to her stomach, chest and arms when she was found dead in her home.

Police confirmed that several members of her family were being questioned over her death.
