A YOUTUBER stabbed his wife to death as she pushed their baby in a pram after tracking her to a refuge, a court heard.
Habibur Masum, 26, allegedly launched a “ferocious” knife attack on Kulsuma Akter, 27, after ambushing her in the street.

Jurors heard the mum had fled to Bradford to escape Masum’s “violence, jealousy and controlling behaviour”.
He had allegedly threatened to kill Kulsuma and was subject to bail conditions ordering him to keep away from her.
Despite this, Masum tracked his wife to a hostel where she was staying and tried to lure her out by posing as a GP, it was said.
Bradford Crown Court on April 6, he confronted Kulsuma as she pushed their baby son in a pram.
CCTV played to jurors showed the pair walking together before Masum pulled a knife from his pocket.
Prosecutor Steven Wood KC said: “He grabs Kulsuma and pushes her into a wall, stabbing her to the body.
“You will see that Kulsuma then goes to the ground only for the defendant to launch a ferocious and deadly attack.
“When the defendant had finished stabbing her, as a final act of sheer gratuitous violence, he kicks Kulsuma before moving away, but not before ensuring that he disposed of the knife.”
The court heard Kulsuma suffered multiple stab wounds to her body and face – including a wound to the neck which partly cut her windpipe and severed her left jugular vein.
Mr Wood said: “The (prosecution) say this was cold-blooded, calculated, pre-meditated murder.
“Why would the defendant take a knife with him to meet his estranged wife unless he planned to use it?”
The court heard that by November 2023, the pair had been married for about 18 months.
At first, the relationship was “generally good” but there were some “warning signs”, it was said.
This included Masum threatening to kill Kulsuma, who stayed with family members in July 2023 because of his “controlling behaviour”.
In November that year, he became jealous over a “completely innocuous” message she received from a male colleague, grabbing her face, slapping her and pulling her hair.
Masum told her: “I am going to murder you, and the police will be taking me.”
The next day, after coming home from work, he went into their bedroom carrying a knife and said: “Tell me what your relationship is with him, or I will kill you.”
Jurors heard he then put the weapon to Kulsuma’s throat – leaving her so terrified she thought that the only way to stop him was to keep the baby on her lap.
A female family member who was concerned for the new mum’s safety called police and Masum was arrested that night.
He was later charged with two offences of assault by beating and one offence of making a threat to kill.
The court heard Kulsuma told a social worker she “believed that one day her husband would kill her” and was moved to accommodation in Bradford in January 2024.
Despite being barred from contacting his wife, Masum messaged her saying if she did not return by April 1, he would kill her brothers.
The court heard the refuge called police but the following day, Masum sent a Snapchat video of Bradford station with a message saying he had “come to her town”.
He later sent her a photo of the hostel with a message saying: “I know that you are living in this place. I knew from the first day you moved here.
“If I had any wish to kill you, I could have from the first day. You do not know what you have lost but one day you will understand. Nobody will love you like I do.”
Jurors heard Kulsuma’s social worker arranged for her to be rehoused and she was due to move on April 8.
But in this time, she heard from one of Masum’s relatives that he was in Spain and tragically “felt safe to leave the refuge” on the day she was killed.
After stabbing his wife to death, Masum travelled almost 200 miles to Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire, and was arrested in a car park near Stoke Mandeville Hospital.
He denies murder but has admitted manslaughter and possession of a knife.
Masum has also pleaded not guilty to two charges of assault, one count of making threats to kill and one charge of stalking.
The trial continues.

THIS is the shocking moment a McDonald’s worker sparks a mass brawl after slapping a hooded youth across his head.
Horrified customers stepped back in fear as several yobs barged their way into the restaurant in Dalston, east London, before attacking the staff member.
One yob confronts the employee and knocks his hat offThe worker retaliates by slapping the teenager across his faceThe rest of the gang pile in after the slap
The chaos started when the group of youngsters were asked to leave the store by staff.
Footage on social media shows the thugs attempting to force their way into the restaurant by pulling the automatic doors open.
They eventually manage to wedge open the entrance, allowing one of their friends to enter the shop.
He starts to confront one of the workers and gestures at him before knocking his hat off his head, sending it flying across the restaurant.
The McDonald’s staff member retaliates by slapping the teenager across his face and dragging him further inside.
Screams from onlookers can be heard as the rest of his pals storm into the restaurant, shouting and aggressively charging towards the worker.
Filming the ordeal, one girl caught in the crossfire begs onlooking personnel to let her and her friend leave the store.
The pair had been trapped in while staff prevented the gang from re-entering.
McDonald’s confirmed that police had been called in following the brawl, which occurred after the “disruptive” group were asked to leave.
A spokesperson for the US food giant said: “We are aware of the incident involving anti-social behaviour from a group of customers that has been circulating on social media.
“The group were asked to leave the restaurant as they were being disruptive and rude to our people and other customers but forced their way back inside.
“The police were called, and we are supporting them with their enquiries.
“At McDonald’s, we have a zero-tolerance policy for anti-social behaviour, and we expect our staff to be treated with respect and decency at all times.
“We are also reminding our restaurant team of the correct procedures for handling this type of behaviour.”
It comes amid rising anti-social behaviour in the hospitality and retail sector across the country.
A Sun investigation in April revealed the shocking scale of shoplifting at Greggs branches in the UK.
Our reporters watched as brazen thieves targeted certain stores several times every hour.
In one incident, when a shoplifter was confronted, he simply gave the worker a fist bump before strolling out.
