in front of her small daughter. Rubina was killed by her jealous ex partner, in front of her daughter who was 7 yrs old (her daughter was my daughters best friend). The trial takes place this week, if anyone gets the Sun paper, it's on page 35. What an awful way to die, her daughter doesnt have her father or any siblings either.

NO hun
i did get a strange phone call
a few months after she went missing
supposedly from my friend
it came at 4 30 am claiming to be her
but she called her hubby by his real name and me by mine
Janey would never of did that when talking to me
she would of called him tricky Dicky and me lady bird
as this was what she called me
and when i reported this call to the police
they said if you want to fool somebody wake them up
i know in my heart this was not Janey's voice on the phone

her hubby was arrested shortly after
this call
but he kept talking epileptic fits and was released

So sad RomanyStar, just read the story. Let us all prey that justice is done. What happened to the little girl, she must have been traumatised

I dont know, Im hoping she's ok. We moved house just before Rubina was killed (paper spelt her name wrong), so my daughter changed schools. When we heard it on the news I couldnt believe it, we went to lay flowers at her door and there were muddy bootprints where he'd been kicking the door, it was unreal. I dont know exactly where her brother lives but I think he or the other brother will have her daughter now. Just hoping she'll be ok in life.
