A man was sentenced to 36 years in prison for the murder of a primary school teacher in London.
A man has been sentenced to life in prison for the murder of Sabina Nessa, a British primary school teacher.
After being found guilty of murdering the 28-year-old teacher as she walked to meet a friend in London, Koci Selamaj was sentenced to at least 36 years in prison.
Selamaj, a 36-year-old Albanian garage worker from the southern town of Eastbourne, pleaded guilty to carrying out the attack.
On September 18, Nessa's body was discovered in a park in Kidbrooke, southeast London, just minutes from her home.
CCTV footage captured the moment Selamaj attacked Nessa from behind and hit her 34 times over the head with a metal traffic triangle.
udge Nigel Sweeney, the prosecutor, stated that the defendant had clearly shown "no remorse" in his defence of the random attack. Prosecutors claimed the murder was motivated by sexual desire.
Nessa's death sparked new concerns about gender-based violence and the safety of women on UK streets.
Her death came just six months after a serving police officer abducted, raped, and murdered 33-year-old Sarah Everard in south London.
In a statement to Selamaj, Nessa's parents, Abdur Rouf and Azibun Nessa, said, "You had no right to take her away from us in such a cruel way."
