'I killed my wife': Sydney man's chilling 000 call played in court
"She was breathing for some time, then I called you guys," Ahmed told police, before admitting he hadn't checked on her between the stabbing and calling triple zero.
The prosecution and defence both agree the stabbing came immediately after the couple argued about Ms Ehali's secret affair with friend Omar Khan.Ahmed snatched his wife's phone, demanded access to read her phone messages and threatened to kill her while holding a kitchen knife.After being granted access and seeing her ongoing contact with Mr Khan - including messages of a sexual nature - Ahmed began stabbing Ms Elahi repeatedly.
"What is the punishment when wife cheat with husband", "what's the best punishment for married man caught cheating on their wives" and "marriage advice" were among other queries he made in December 2016.Under cross-examination, the police officer who compiled the report into Ahmed's internet history said it was possible the accused had spent only seconds on the pages and there was no way to tell how much content on each page was read.
Ahmed's barrister has argued his client was substantially impaired by a depressive illness at the time of Ms Elahi's death. The agreed facts state a general practitioner referred Ahmed to a mental health treatment plan in 2015 while Ms Elahi called police in September 2016 after she believed he would harm or kill himself.
