    A Hull man who murdered his wife, stabbing her multiple times in her neck and back, has been jailed for a minimum of 18 years.

    During a hearing at Hull Crown Court on January 18, Habib Noorzai, 43, of Hainsworth Park, Hull, admitted murdering 29-year-old Nasima Noorzai.

    After stabbing her, Noorzai wrapped her body in bin liners and drove across the Humber Bridge to a layby on the A15, around a mile south of the bridge, where he attempted to bury her body in the shrubbery.

    He then returned home and attempted to clean up the scene.

    Habib Noorzai viciously attacked and killed his wife, depriving their two young children of a loving and devoted mother. His actions mean they will also grow up without a father being present. The children are now being cared for and supported by specialists and I would like to take this opportunity to pay tribute to their courage throughout the investigation. I hope this sentence is of some comfort to the family.

    Detective Chief Inspector Craig Scaife, Senior Investigating Officer

  18. Humber Bridge 'urban explorer' fined for scaling structurepublished at 10:11 Greenwich Mean Time 19 January 2018

    Humber Bridge officials have vowed to get tough with people who try to climb the structure after a man was fined for breaching security.

    Ryan Taylor was fined by magistrates in Hull after scaling the safety barrier at the Barton end of the bridge in May last year, and walking up the cables to the top of the south tower.

    The case came about after the Humber Bridge brought a private prosecution.

    Taylor was among a group who scaled the bridge without safety equipment in the early hours of Monday 15th May 2017.

    They took videos and pictures of themselves at the top of the tower which they later posted on YouTube and other social media channels.

    They fled the bridge after being spotted by security cameras.

    The fact that we prosecuted shows how seriously we take this offence - we’re pleased it was a heavy fine. We are looking at further court action where we can against others who were involved.
