Afghan asylum seeker admits murdering his ex-girlfriend’s 17-year-old sister and her friend

An asylum-seeker today admitted stabbing to death his ex-girlfriend's 17-year-old sister and her 18-year-old friend. Ahmad Otak, 21, murdered Kimberley Frank and her friend Samantha Sykes, 18, in Kimberley's flat in Wakefield, West Yorkshire, in March. Otak, who is from Afghanistan, had visited Kimberley's home to discuss his stormy relationship with her sister Elisa when the murders took place. A judge at Leeds Crown Court today warned Otak he now faces a life sentence. Appearing via video-link from Wakefield Prison, the 21-year-old - who entered the UK in 2007 - pleaded guilty to two counts of murder, and to carrying a blade. Judge Peter Collier said in court: 'As I’m sure you will understand, the sentence for murder is fixed by law and the sentence that will be passed on you in due course is one of life imprisonment.'
