Four family members smothered pregnant wife to death because they thought she was 'possessed by an evil spirit'

Four members of a family have been found guilty of murdering a 21-year-old pregnant woman they thought was possessed by evil spirits. Following a 12-week trial at Birmingham Crown Court, Naila Mumtaz’s husband, Mohammed Tauseef Mumtaz, 25, his parents, Zia Ul-Haq and Salma Aslam, both aged 51, and his brother-in-law, Hammad Hussan, 24, were all found guilty of killing her. Jurors heard that Mumtaz, who was accused of smothering his six-months pregnant wife, told police she tried to strangle herself and may have been 'possessed' by an evil spirit.
