Mum knifed in the throat months after her son, 5, called 999 to report his abusive stepdad
Jahangir Nazar brutally killed his wife Farkhanda Younis in a frenzied knife attack in April last year
A MUM was stabbed to death in a frenzied knife attack eight months after her five-year-old son called cops to report of her killer's abuse.
Farkhanda Younis, 30, was murdered by her jealous husband Jahangir Nazar at her home in Oldham, Manchester, in April 2013.
Before her death, her young son bravely rang 999 in September 2012 to say his stepdad Nazar was hitting his mum, reported.
But his plea was put down to a "false call with good intent" after an officer attended a home to speak to the couple.
Eight months later, Ms Younis' son rang police again because he couldn’t rouse his mum and her room was locked.
Her body was found by cops with multiple stab wounds to the neck while her son was in the next room.
Nazar was found guilty of her murder and sentenced to life imprisonment with a minimum term of 22 years.
He had previously admitted manslaughter on the grounds of diminished responsibility but his plea was rejected and he was made to stand trial for murder.
It comes after the Independent Police Complaints Commission (IPCC) found a series of failings in the handling of three women - including Ms Younis, Linzi Ashton and Rania Alayed - who were murdered by their partners.
Mum-of-three Rania Alayed, 25, from Manchester, was murdered in June last year by her husband for becoming "too westernised" and "establishing an independent life".
Ahmed Al-Khatib told Manchester Crown Court that he killed her in self-defence after an evil spirit entered her, but he denied murder.
He was jailed for life and was handed a minimum term of 20 years.
Linzi Ashton, 25, was beaten and strangled at her home in Salford in June last year by her ex-boyfriend Michael Cope.
He was jailed for 27 years for murdering her in a "prolonged, extremely violent and determined attack".
Their cases known to Greater Manchester Police had raised "serious concerns" after the police watchdog revealed the women were a long-time victims of abuse.
The IPCC's on how they were treated by police found "thematic issues" around the handling of domestic violence and a "number of instances where individuals could have done better".
The report says: “It is important to note that none of the investigations found any evidence that the actions of any individuals under investigation caused or contributed to the deaths of these women.”
