A NEWLYWED couple who stabbed the groom’s stepmum while wearing creepy animal masks have been jailed.
Wasif Hussain, 21 and his wife Nabela Tabassum, 19, donned the giraffe masks from Poundland to launch into the “frenzied” attack.
Hussain repeatedly stabbed Arifa Nazmin and bludgeoned her with a hammer as his wife restrained her new mother-in-law.
He also strangled and punched her during the horror in Birmingham, which was caught on camera.
The couple have now been found jailed after they were found guilty of attempted murder following a trial.
Hussain was caged for 15 years while his wife received a nine-year jail term.
In her victim impact statement, Arifa said: “I still panic when the door is knocked, I can feel the fear in my body.
“I’m terrified they have returned to finish me off. I will live with this for the rest of my life.”
Birmingham Crown Court heard they had been living at the home after they got married in December 2023.
But they soon hatched the evil plot to kill Arifa after they were accused of not doing any chores and treating the house like a hotel.
The stepmum also claimed Tabassum could not wash up properly.
The court was told the pair snapped when they were asked to leave the home and began assembling a chilling kill kit.
This included a can of Zoflora disinfect, gloves and a lighter all bought from a One Stop in a bid to cover their tracks.
The monster couple planned to burn Arifa’s body in the garden after killing her.
They also bought the Poundland giraffe masks on January 29 – the day they launched the savage attack.
As Tabassum held Arifa down, Hussain plunged a knife in and battered his stepmum over the head with a hammer.
The bride told her husband “kill her, kill her” as Hussain branded Arifa a “gold digger”.
He also chillingly told her: “You will die for everything you have done.”
A camera inside the home captured the victim’s terrified screams as she desperately fought back.
Brave Arifa managed to survive the horror by convincing them to go upstairs before she called for help.
Both Tabassum and Hussain fled but were discovered in a Travelodge in Bolton the following day and arrested.
